Dinosaurs and Astronauts - consisting of a steel structure, lead and stained glass - examines the possibilities of melancholy and fatigue as a resisting force. Elements of stained glass and dancing flutes let the viewer immerse in grotesque, supposedly medieval visual worlds. The title of the exhibition opens up an area of tension between relics of bygone times and bearers of hope for the future. They conjure up the resistance of melancholy; an inner state that makes us pause and holds unimagined potential.
