Hi, it’s Travis
Bonne Espérance, Copenhagen, Denmark
2 - 25 June 2023
In a setting that mirrors the nihilistic aesthetics of modern urban life - glass, steel, LED, digital devices - Kaare Golles thematizes the relationship between love and power, jealousy, and social isolation caused by rapid technological development. The works include wall-hung bronze sculptures of barbed wire, a lamp, a hyper realistic mask, a large glass wall with engravings, and video works; objects and images without immediate connection, tied together in the digital logic of the endless image feed.
