Cycles explores the natural and mechanical rhythms and processes inherent to domestic buildings, and specifically Van Gogh House.

Artists Clara Hastrup, Vibeke Mascini, Inés Cámara Leret were invited to spend time in the house and develop new sculptural, video and installation works in response to the titular theme, the house and its existing spaces and objects – from electrical currents, cleaning routines, heating systems and the chain reactions that are generated.

The exhibition presents the idea that this building, and perhaps all buildings, are composed of interconnected, delicately balanced conditions – vulnerable to changing circumstances. It will be an opportunity to question how people can ‘read’ and interact with the house, and where they see the boundaries between technology, historical narratives and nature.

Visitors who would like a more in-depth introduction will be able to take a guided tour of the house, which situates Van Gogh’s time in London, examining the city’s politics, material culture and fabric through the House.
