The exhibition culls its title from a show that both artists used to watch as children. Prompted by the eeriness of the host’s aloneness in his quests, the artists articulate the difficulties of navigating adulthood and the desire to escape reality. If only life were as simple as being presented with concrete and easy options to choose from, and being given validation at the end of each day that yes, you have figured it out. But given the reality of precariousness and the need to find a sense of certainty, the exhibition dives into notions of safe-keeping—as the archiving and fragmentation of memory, and the preservation of one’s sanity.
