Baking Soda
Installation, 2024
Hillerbrand+Magsamen celebrate the transformative power and beauty inherent in the everyday at the Ion Building in Houston. Their installation offers a playful exploration of home science experiments, domesticity, and transformation in four window spaces. Drawing inspiration from ordinary kitchen objects and the enchanting world of home science, they reimagine these elements as catalysts for creativity and wonder. Toys, measuring cups, insulation foam, lights, and kitchen utensils are repurposed to create a visual symphony that transcends their utilitarian origins, inviting viewers to rediscover the magic hidden within the mundane. Blurring the boundaries between art and everyday life, this commissioned installation incorporates objects, photographs, and video.
