«Oi Peter, I k-k-kan see your house from here!»

Space always puts in evidence the cracks in the whole, that which is marked as a territorial unity. The Chapman brother’s just gave us that opportunity to meddle in-between one another, with this new exhibition at White Cube. While with The Milk of Human Weakness series, at Hoxton Square, we, the public, as a reflecting mass of individuals, are suggested to take a moment and reflect in communion in front of home made altars, with mutated statues into flesh-eating creatures, to suffer in the interests of someone or something else. Whereas with the SS clothed figures, at Mason’s Yard, we are invited to participate in an awesome spectacle of visual feast while engaging in misconduct behaviour derived from degenerative art. The spatial circumstances are that when the last days are upon us we just look aroused at the gardens of earthly delights. With searing wit and energy we meddle to the space in-between both religion and morality, and became a sheathe extremist right wing that ware white robes and hoods’ and a free spirit hippie.

At White Cube Mason's Yard and Hoxton Square, until September 17th 2001
