A deer standing up in the middle of the space, staring into your eyes. That moment of connection, panic, suspense, surprise when you meet a deer walking somewhere. There’s something similar in the feeling when you step out of the lift at Sky Tower in London and see the Shard standing there. So ridiculously tall and alone. I imagine it to periodically rain into this space. The deer’s antlers are shedding, the eyes are glass, the head is made of needle felt. The body is an armor: hours of time spent making this frame to hold the skin in place. There is something coarse and ragged about the body, so much so that it is best to look away from it. It accurately occupies the space of a deer’s body, but lacks the weight, the musculature. Attached to one of the deer’s back legs is a trap. It is easy to enter the trap, but the reverse is not true. The rope between the deer’s leg and the trap is taught, pulled with tension as if the deer is dragging it, it just happens to be there. Inside there are large wooden spheres painted with cute kawaii eyes. Eyes with hearts and stars reflected in them, eyes with flames of fire. An infographic that I saw recently about resources taken up by humans and then human pets and then the tiny tiny proportion of ‘wildlife’ and the ‘resources’ that we ‘give’ to this wildlife. You can buy cute soft toys that are already animals but that are dressed up as other animals. I saw beer for dogs in a supermarket. I saw a cafe with an entire menu for dogs. What is a Starbucks Puppaccino? Camping in Wales in the summer we met a man flying a drone and wearing an Oculus Rift, his child standing immobile at his side. I felt very angry and said something to him about birds. He said the birds like it. Foxes have started living on roofs now. One of them stole a pair of boots on our street and a man with a flashlight is going around searching for the boots but then he tells us that actually he found the boots and he’s looking for a glove. He has one of the gloves. Another neighbour says to put a photo of the glove on the street whatsapp group to see if anyone will find the other one. Someone has been seen with a drone. They are searching for foxes on the roofs. “but not in a nice way” they want to poison them. What place will you leave them? How to make a room not echo? Inserted in the frame of those big doors is a handmade wooden gate. Stable-door. There’s a latch to get in. A hanging basket of flowers. A slate sign which reads THE MUDDY CHOIR. ______________________ warming plate sensible survival residual suffering awfully silent unequal intimacy clinical week former everything biomass poor sensory economy lazy river earn vigorously Seeing fractions as division. There is no way to opt out of the scheme. Yesterday or after yesterday. A nose full of apples, apricots and honey. A loose sleeveless cloak or cape. Spend more than a year developing 10 new questions. Lies in state. Fair to say. Safe to say. Heatwaves will be hotter. See how other people feel. Defending planets, hearts pounding. Probably we trained each other. These gates are closed at dusk. Wine water milk jug. How they decide what is most important to them. No one lives in the global average. It’s a sample of the world’s own heart. Probably we trained each other. producing redemption mythical commerce perfect forgetfulness unvoiced sounds soft palate vivo magis scavenging mooncakes contattatemi urgentemente disproportionally startling sacred limits Honey, The best way to account for the coherence of our experience is to suppose that the outside world corresponds, at least approximately, to the image of it provided by our senses. I pull three beetles out of my ear. They look like skeletons but then when I put them in water they swim. Can you run out of adrenaline? Hard vs Soft Magic. Don’t be afraid to seek support from your bank. In the metaverse surgeons will practise hundreds of times. Forever Chemicals. Surgeons will be able to practise hundreds of times in the metaverse. Turn key anti-clockwise. Anger can sometimes put a person in a frightening situation. Love does not just happen, it is willed. *** Emily Jones (London, 1987) works in the intersection of multiple fields: science, ecology, cosmology, architecture, technology, archaeology, geography, as well as history, memory and belief, considered as interconnected layers. She works with sculpture, installation and performance. Her recent solo exhibitions include: Antarctica from Space, Aquaporin N/S, Denmark (2022); tilt-elk-luck-warm, Veda, Florence, (2020); Snowshow Hare and Hallies, Almanac, London (2019); All god's children could be led astray, PINA, Vienna (2019); as a bird would a snake, Centre d'art Contemporaine - La Synagogue de Delme, France (2019) and others.

Renowned for his impactful works that explore themes of memory, myth, war, and existence through painting, sculpture, and installation, Kiefer presents historical works and new productions at Palazzo Strozzi, engaging in a unique dialogue with the Renaissance architecture. Each work by Kiefer always expresses a rejection of limits, in its monumentality and the power of materiality, but above all in the infinite richness of resources with which he delves into the depths of memory and the past. He made his debut on the German art scene in the late 1960s with works that reflected on the history of the Second World War and the emotional and cultural legacy of Germany. This marked the beginning of an artistic pursuit in which history, myth, religion, mysticism, poetry, and philosophy merge and blur with one another. Curated by Arturo Galansino, the exhibition at Palazzo Strozzi aims to convey the vital complexity of Kiefer’s art, celebrating the interweaving of figure and abstraction, nature and artificiality, creation and destruction in a deeply engaging project, both in the physical and conceptual space of his works.
