OLIVIA ERLANGER, Appliance 

Wild Seeds 2

Delving into the history of a domestic appliance and how it is constructed in the cultural imagination, Appliance includes five new essays by artist and writer Olivia Erlanger. Playing between fact and fiction the essays weave together anecdotes and personal narratives while examining these appliances’ deployment in art history, cinema, and pop culture. The book also includes the theater play Humour in the Water Coolant, performed on the exhibition’s opening night (2022) and at the Institute of Contemporary Art, London in May 2024.
