Mick Sand enjoys looking at how a space is organized because it reveals a lot about the persons, institutions, or polities who designed it. A minimalist living room, an artist’s workshop or studio, a heritage museum, every space is populated following a certain logic that reveals the influences and intentions behind it. His practice concerns his ongoing relation to the spaces and places of his quotidian movements and to the people and objects that inhabit them. His photographs and photo-sculptural works explore and reflect on his ever-changing relationship to these people and objects, to his tools and materials, and to the world around him as he navigates through it.
