From the climate crisis to systems of power dynamics to technological automation, Nikita Gale creates large-scale installations that explore the socio-economic politics of space, visibility and transformation. Twisted metal barricades, concrete, microphone stands, spotlights, sound and light are used in her installations to investigate ways space and sound can be – and are– politicised. With a background in anthropology and archeology, Gale incorporates everyday consumerist objects, exploring their cultural significance and the role of their materiality in economic and social systems. Ruin, attention and structures are running themes of Gale’s multidisciplinary practice that recently has further focused on climate change and the resulting anxiety. The artist often approaches her audience as a social arena, with sound, silence, sculptural barriers and visibility becoming conditions to a politicised presence, both of the artwork and the viewer.
