The Forever Temporary
Nicolaas van de Lande & Lucía Scarselletta

Fungus Press Residency: ‘Passing Through’

‘passing through’ is a poetic response to the act of moving through each site at different times; stopping and observing what or who else is passing through; but also imagining what or who else has and will.

![Join us for a sneak peak behind the scenes of our next exhibition, 'The Forever Temporary'! 🏚
Lucía Scarselletta [@soyluciasca] is a multidisciplinary Argentine artist working with textiles. She explores and addresses topics including migration, sustainability and gender through installation, film, sculpture and text. As a researcher, Lucía is interested in the heritage and meanings of textiles through history and politics, and how this is projected into our daily lives.
Lucía pairs drawings and found materials from buildings under construction with traditional embroidery techniques. Her textile sculptures invite us to reflect on how it feels to live in temporary accommodation. An accompanying short film asks; where is this state of endless ‘development’ leading?
