Where are we really going? In the exhibition Terminal, Niki Lindroth von Bahr depicts the repetitive existence of an airport, inspired by Greek mythology and Dante Alighieri’s medieval epic The Divine Comedy. Through cinematic loops and sculptural installations, she analyzes a distinctive place populated by shrimp, flies and other anthropomorphic mythical creatures.
