The "BANG CELL" is a massive accumulation of detonations, a bang accumulation, an expansive force that is at the same time trapped in a closed cell, a glass box. Explosive power, compressed in a confined space; like a small big bang just before expansion. Inside it seethes enormously, outside an ordinary, public place. The room remains closed, and the installation can only be viewed from the outside during the exhibition. Do catastrophes lose their horror due to the accumulation of images? Can destruction degenerate into decoration? Are you safe outside the blast cell? Is there an outside?
