This survey exhibition, ‘Is Today Tomorrow’ by Berlin-based contemporary artist Camille Henrot takes a playful approach to life’s big questions. Exploring the idea that we are both private individuals and global subjects, Henrot draws from self-help, online second-hand marketplaces, cultural anthropology, literature, psychoanalysis, and social media. The exhibition includes sculpture, drawing, video and installation, as well as never-before-seen watercolour works on paper, and a playful prompt and response phone interaction. Yes or No, Is Google right about you?
