Curator: Richard Wilson's "Room 6 Channel View Hotel (1)" presents a fascinating study in spatial representation. Editor: It feels like a deconstructed architectural model, all exposed framework, but hauntingly familiar. Curator: The work employs a delicate line drawing overlaid with photographic elements, creating a dialogue between different modes of depiction. Editor: The photographs appear almost like memories embedded within the structure, each a fleeting glimpse into private space. It feels a little claustrophobic to me. Curator: Perhaps the colorful nodes at each intersection are points of emphasis, highlighting the interconnectedness of these spaces. Editor: It’s like peering into a dream hotel, a place built of fragments and connected by strange, brightly coloured logic. Curator: A fitting observation, reflecting the artwork's play between representation and reality. Editor: Yes, definitely a structure that invites more questions than answers.
