E like End
Kostas Basanos
Installation
1 April – 14 May 2022
The in-situ installation E like END betrays a potential condition of reading structural architectural elements as letters with semantic and conceptual implications, both for what a letter morphologically can mean, and the plethora of words that result from the original capital letter E in conjunction always with the vertical and horizontal axes of space.
What else could one assume beyond the version of an ending, an E that sinks into the potential meaning of the one that follows? An N and a D. Or does it arbitrarily denote a potential end of language? Surely the installation E like END is not aimed at the statement of a teleological condition, but the contingency of a beginning.
With references to minimalist practices, Kostas Bassanos attempts a reconstruction of space through the deconstruction of language, focusing on the letter-elements that make up a word in combination with existing structural elements, thereby suggesting suggestively a relationship between text and architecture.
The exhibition E like End by Kostas Basanos is part of the activities of the Potential Project.
