#ArtMTL #BNLMTL2016 @MACMTL @BNLMTL Bed Island (Don’t Sleep), 2016 by Nadia Belerique A cyclorama wall frames the installation of three elevated steel frames suggestive of tabletops but referencing beds. The elements laid on their rectangular surfaces reference identity—shoes, jewellery, glassware, clothing, and so on—and the artist directs the viewing experience: the objects are only partially visible through the frosted glass pane and the composition can only be seen from below. From this particular vantage point, the staged objects produce a play between positive and negative space, as the light and the glass create a sculptural photographic image. And it is precisely in this blurring of mediums that Belerique’s strength lies.
