YURI PATTISON
20 May – 6 August 2017

The Irish artist Yuri Pattison (*1986, lives in London) will transform Kunst Halle Sankt Gallen into a projection surface for the contemporary world with an immersive, multimedia installation. Co-working spaces, newsrooms as factories for the post-factual era and logistics centres of online megastores are the focus of interest along with details which define them: routers, humidifiers, surveillance cameras, office plants and cheap replicas of design classics. Pattison’s artistic world moves between the sculptural and the digital and plays with control mechanisms. The artist will intervene as a programmer in the installation in a spectacular way, confronting spaces, materials and themes which define today’s reality.
