------------------------------------------------------- An installation of Lost Tablets featured in the group exhibition Domestic Sects at Neon Parc, held from 16 April to 15 May, 2021. The works, Lost Tablet Waterwitch and Lost Tablet Vasa, were shown alongside pieces by Anabel Robinson, forming a layered dialogue between object, space, and theme. Blending material intensity with mythic references, the installation explored the intersection of ritual, memory, and domesticity, inviting quiet reflection and personal interpretation. ------------------------------------------------------- Rare earth magnets, found Lego, 19 x 24.5 x 4.8 cm — on a powder-coated steel table mounted base ------------------------------------------------------- Details on the Lost Tablets website via link in bio ------------------------------------------------------- @jan.van.schaik @lost_tablets @neon_parc
