Untitled (Archive Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art) consists of five double-sided lightboxes developed for the exhibition After First, Comes Second at the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Rijeka, Croatia (2025). The photographs, printed on canvas, depict museum storage interiors housing the collection—spaces that form part of the institution but remain physically and symbolically beyond public access. In this case, the absence of a permanent collection display foregrounds the limitations of the museum’s role as a public institution of memory.

Positioned perpendicular to the gallery walls and secured with ratchet straps, the lightboxes occupy a space between photographic image and sculptural object. Their internal illumination activates the printed surfaces, producing a distant, almost spectral effect. The straps introduce the visual language of storage and transport, suggesting displacement and provisional stability.

The installation examines the relationship between institutional preservation and public access, archiving and forgetting. By bringing images of storage spaces into the gallery, it draws attention to the conditions under which artworks exist within the museum. The illuminated photographs make visible what is preserved but not displayed, registering the collection’s presence within a temporary state of invisibility.
