The viewer lies down, on their back, on the gallery floor in order to place their head inside HEADSPACE.
It is a listening space. Their body lies outside the space and is
vulnerable. Their spacial perception is altered inside and out. In the
darkened HEADSPACE the viewer becomes focused on the audio amplified inside the space, undistracted.
In HEADSPACE the passivity of the viewer is challenged, as
they are asked to experience the work in a way that they are not
familiar with. By positioning the viewer in such a way, they are perhaps
uncomfortable both physically and psychologically. There is nothing to
see once inside, only listen. The audio input into HEADSPACE will change throughout the exhibition period.

Bloody fantastic, I could see a simultaneous roll out of these across the country. Of course there are some people who already have their heads placed in dark orifices but they only hear themselves.
