Project Space



"Shadow Writing (Lace/Variations)" is a new commission by artist and curator Lorenzo Sandoval for Nottingham Contemporary's project space. It presents a space for encounters in a setting made of a modular furniture system that can provide different combinations. It works as a hosting place for meetings, a display system, and a library.

The space and modules will be activated through a series of talks and conversations on histories of computation, reproductive labour, and domestic space within the realm of the lace industry.

3pm – Introduction by Lorenzo Sandoval and Alba Colomo
3.15pm – Presentation by curator Eva Wilson on histories of computation, mathematics, looms and photography
