Description
This minimalist contemporary artwork features a sleek, industrial-style bench with a simple metal frame and a series of horizontal bars. The overall composition is visually striking, with a bold, geometric design and a muted, beige color scheme. The inclusion of a single, crumpled red cloth or towel on the bench adds a subtle touch of contrast and a sense of narrative.

These two spaces exemplify the spirit of Sultana: the desire to provide artists with an independent platform for expression via site-specific projects and curatorial propositions. ...
