For On Purpose Savage has set up an intervention with the Arnolfini’s lighting system in its public areas. Discreetly positioned domestic light-switche, within the buildings circulation areas allow the lights in certain spaces to be switched on or off to an unsuspecting public. The positioning of the switches in relation to the affected public areas appears somewhat illogical, with the public not necessarily having direct vision of the lighting they are apparently in control of. This also includes the exhibition space, where the usual function of lighting exhibits will, on occasion, be denied.
