Annunciations · Public threshold

Objects in situation

A room of first contact. These studies are outward-facing, practical, and legible at a distance, giving Cantica I its public threshold.

Curatorial Note

Annunciations carry the cantica into daily use. The objects behave like signs encountered on the way in: garments, soft goods, and small accessories that make the ascent social before it becomes ceremonial.

Studies

10 objects in Annunciations.

The first ten studies present Cantica I as apparel, utility, and offering.

Other Rooms

Continue through the cantica.

Each room changes what the collection is allowed to mean in public.
