Portuguese artist Carlos Bunga is best known for his large-scale and site-specific architectural installations, which he makes from materials such as tape, cardboard and household paint. For this major exhibition of his most recent art, the Barcelona-based Bunga has created a work especially for the gallery. Composed of cardboard columns and other architectural forms, the installation has been made for the venue’s street-facing window box, a temporary environment alluding to the often-precarious nature of physical constructs.
