BGW. glossia (some urgencies). Ariadna Guiteras & Lauren Gault

Through a collaborative process that dissolves the boundaries between individual practices, Lauren Gault (Belfast, 1986) and Ariadna Guiteras (Barcelona, 1986) have constructed a space where the visual, historical, and speculative converge. ‘glossia (some urgencies)’ began with a question: what could collaboration look like? The result is an attempt to merge two practices into a third, something new that emerges through mutual understanding.

Like a word suspended in the air, vibrating in anticipation of being heard or understood, ‘glossia (some urgencies)’ is a meditation on the Greek concept of enargeia—the quality of making the absent present through language—and on the material location of the voice. Here, suspension functions as both form and strategy: a way of holding. From the gallery’s ceiling hang undulating metal structures that reach toward the walls, where they hold, press, or sustain sculptures. This configuration forms a chain of supports—a concatenation of materialities that collapse timelines and technologies, amplifying their capacities for interaction and message-making.
