The Laundromat art project space is proud to present ‘The Presence of Absence: Pre-occupation of Empty Spaces’, an installation exhibition by Emily Armstrong.

In her final year of a Master of Art and Design degree Emily Armstrong presents an installation that explores the construct of private space.

‘French philosopher Gaston Bachelard proposes in his book The Poetics of Space, that “A living creature fills an empty refuge, images inhabit, and all corners are haunted, if not inhabited”. An innate understanding of the potential for an interior to house a body arouses suspicion of all interiors in the mind of the approaching individual: Is it occupied? Do I have permission?’
-Emily Armstrong

You are invited to the exhibition opening night 11 November 5.30pm – 8pm. Look forward to seeing you there!
