Dan Gunn Gallery, Berlin, Germany

Solo show

The exhibition takes its title from a drinking song narrating the loss of a love and the disoriented return from an imagined or unreachable world. Suspended between intoxication, longing and theatrical invocation, the title establishes the emotional and perceptual atmosphere of the installation: a condition where reality appears unstable, fragmented and affectively charged.

The exhibition brings together sculptures made from painted pitch that mimic found and familiar objects, constructing a material culture that feels simultaneously intimate and estranged. Everyday forms appear transformed into residues, relics or emotional doubles — recognisable, yet difficult to fully identify.

Alongside these works, a bronze sculpture composed of a suspended knocker oscillates on a tripod structure, introducing a precarious balance between monumentality and instability. The movement of the piece suggests a latent action or interrupted signal, as if communication were permanently suspended before completion.

A textile architecture functioning as a portal structures the exhibition spatially, operating both as threshold and symbolic passage. Neither entirely architectural nor theatrical, the fabric construction produces a transitional zone between interior and exterior, presence and projection.

Throughout the installation, objects behave less as representations than as carriers of emotional and narrative tension. The exhibition develops through suggestion, displacement and symbolic resonance rather than through linear storytelling.

Narrative, unstable and symbolic, Come Back Sir, You’re Not From That World. Please, Come Back Sir, You’re From This World. constructs an environment where memory, intoxication and material presence overlap, producing a world suspended between affection and hallucination.
