La Soglia Magical is a light and steam installation in airport Malpensa in Milan. All passengers have to go through the installation to exit the airport.
What does it mean when people have no choice about engaging with an installation? Or what about when they have to make a choice themselves? Is it possible not to engage with an installation?
I found this an interesting concept and one that was incorporated into a Carsten Höller exhibition at the Hayward Gallery.
To enter the gallery, the viewer is presented with a choice between going through tunnel A or tunnel B. Although the viewer seemingly has a choice about how they enter the exhibition, the choice of how is removed.
