In the glut consumed of CA images Daily the immediacy of a work to affect, or stylize "meaning" while withholding it, of which Mona Lisa's smiles is the dead pig beaten titular example of, a gesture of something that like code affects a totemic omen, an endless connotation of meaning, and in this exhibition everything awaits you with bated breath, however deciphering a meaning is a red haired lure, the question is why we feel affected to decipher anything at all, of which Nashat has long been decidedly brilliant at, is of supreme importance.
