Nancy Koenigsberg
Nancy Koenigsberg’s Concentric Houses
(Radical Ornament) in black, silver, and
gold wire evokes both shelter and expo-
sure, speaking to the vulnerability of do-
mestic life under political strain. Their
open lattice and nested forms suggest
the fragility of home, where lives remain
interwoven and resilient even as larger
structures of security begin to fray. The
exposed grid and interiors suggest how
private spaces are never sealed off, but
remain entangled with broader systems of
power, tension, and resilience.
