About the Item

With a keen interest in the uncomfortable relationship between intimacy and voyeurism, Middernacht & Alexander thrive on investigating the psychological aspects of everyday life. Perception is a major theme, as are time, conservation and the human condition.The culmination of these themes is apparent in their choice of materials, which seem straightforward but are actually rather ambiguous. Middernacht & Alexander often look for materials that have fleeting characteristics, that oxidize or decay if left untreated, and try to stop them. In doing so tensions arise, which in turn tie in with what they experience as human beings. Middernacht & Alexander are known for their innovative series "How I Got Over", which reuses decommissioned underground diesel tanks from Belgian homes. These decades-old tanks, scarred by corrosion, offer a unique patina that the duo transforms into functional works of art. Each piece is finished with a unique combination of epoxy and pigments, making each artwork unique due to the unregistered mix of materials used.
