dictionary of dullness

Tobias Bärtsch, Leila Peacock, and João Ghira Zinho

curated by Dietikon Projektraum

dictionary of dullness explores feelings of absurdity, desolation, and loss. The figures are stuck in a perpetual anti-climax — like the moment before you get a joke but without the joke — waiting for something that may come but never arrives.
