A minimalist installation in a bright, white-walled gallery features a dark rectangular panel mounted on the wall, displaying rows of seemingly random white letters and numbers resembling an encrypted code or departure board. In front of it stands a small wooden kneeler with a cushioned pad and an attached cable, evoking a mix of prayer and machine interface. Large windows on the right side let in natural light, illuminating the polished concrete floor and serene, contemplative atmosphere.
