This installation develops from a series first presented at the Josip Račić Gallery (National Museum of Modern Art, Zagreb, 2023) and later adapted for the 29th Slavonian Biennale at the Waldinger Gallery (Fine Arts Museum, Osijek, 2024). For the 15th Triennial of Croatian Sculpture, the work is further contextualised in response to the exhibition’s circumstances: due to earthquake damage and the ongoing renovation of the Gliptoteka building, the Triennial is exceptionally held at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Zagreb.

The installation consists of double-sided light boxes containing photographs taken in museum depots, temporary repositories, and inside the Gliptoteka building during its reconstruction. The images address the conditions of institutional infrastructure, archival practices, and the visibility—or invisibility—of museum collections.

Pedestals from the Gliptoteka’s own holdings are incorporated into the installation as structural elements. Removed from their usual role of displaying sculpture, they function as witnesses to the museum’s institutional memory.

By combining documentary photography with historical exhibition furniture from the museum’s collection, the work reflects on the displacement of the institution, the fragility of archives, and the role of space as an active participant in the construction of cultural memory.
