One Dozen and Zero Units was exhibited across two first-floor rooms of South London Gallery. Using archival research, the exhibition explored material, sculptural and architectural aspects of the site’s history, with references drawn from early commissions, such as Walter Crane’s marquetry floor, through to the philanthropy of Passmore Edwards, and the foresight of the site’s founder, William Rossiter. As part of the exhibition, the upper galleries were stripped back revealing original features such as the wooden floor and brick fireplace, and the original ‘free library’ (destroyed in WWII) was reimagined as an architectural drawing. Props, supports, and the basic components of visual language - point, line and plane - were used to suggest a compositional language, here extended to sculptural installation.


Exhibited as part of the SLG/Sound and Music Embedded residency.
