Purposefully Makeshift: Elizabeth Englander at a.Squire

"There is an intentional humour to the work. It pretends to do something badly, which draws attention, ultimately, to the absurdity of making art."

"Clifton and Hughes seem to be skirting around their own nameless cities, teasing at the idea of a defined place, stripping back any defining features that might comfortably locate the work. Instead, place is articulated through an uncertain, everyday discomfort."

After House: Rachel Whiteread and the Shifting Landscape of Public Art in Britain

"Researchers presented us with a mode of producing space for the self which not only emerged from internal struggle, but from the specific living conditions in Los Angeles in the 1990s and beyond. It reveals a precarious way of being, born from a city which was—and still is—unwelcoming to the survival of artists. And through this, it proposes an elastic understanding of space, where boundaries are both unnecessary and impossible, where the objective is simply to find a place to rest."
