The Installation

Review of The Long and Winding Road Installation

Michael Pinchbeck’s piece seemed the flagship of the show with a collection of catalogued parcels that had belonged to his brother. The piece was a detailed arrangement of a portion of a larger piece know as The Long and Winding Road, a performance in which the parcels and the car that belonged to his brother would be driven into a river at the end of a journey, both physical and metaphorical. The piece was presented in a sans self-conscious way and with a comfortable maturity. Several other pieces resonated with maturity as well, but primarily with a materiality.
