About the exhibition
"Codified Environments" takes its departure point from reflections on the public spaces of Stockholm. The project draws connections between the broader contemporary debate on public, democratic space, and the specific artistic strategies of Gustafsson Fürst and Pagano, who both engage with notions of public in their practices.
"Codified Environments" presents Lucia Pagano’s 2016 experimental documentary short film "Röda Linjen", filmed along the metro line from Ropsten to Norsborg. Gustafsson Fürst has created a new work for this exhibition – a spatial installation which responds to Pagano’s film, intervening physically and visually with the audience’s experience.
