"...there is a subtlety and complexity to the works that in part is underpinned by the maker’s undivided preoccupation with the seemingly unremarkable. Its is the nuances of space and time and of attention lavished on things that are perhaps designed not to be looked or that seek out obscurity that elevates these everyday musings to a heightened poetic state. Patalab is as an ongoing project with seemingly no declared beginning, middle or end has echoes of Marcel Proust’s work and its continual obsessive return to the same territory, to the same places spaces and thoughts and the passage through them and back again."

Moving around new territories with the corridor ease of a venerable lounge lizard, Sam Renseiw trails the interiors of a renown research establishment, lobbying his way through the tangle, via the innermost to the viewing theatre, to proceed with a visionary divulging.

"An estimated 100,000 Danish nurses and other health care workers haven't been to work in two weeks as they demand long due wage concessions. Nurses, midwives, laboratory technicians, physiotherapists and nursing aides walked off their jobs last week to demand a 15 percent wage hike over three years to bring them on a par with their colleagues in the private sector. Over 20,000 members of the union Trade and Labour (FOA) that organizes nursing home and kindergarten employees also went on strike.The strike is the first major social conflict in Denmark since 1998 and is broadly supported by the Danish public."

"The external object had broken with its normal environment, and its internal component parts had, so to speak, emancipated themselves from it in such a way that they were now able to maintain entirely new relationships with other elements, escaping from the principle of reality but retaining all their importance on that plane."

Invited to view a rare typology of stored maritime artefacts, Sam Renseiw entered an old building to discover an interior space oozing with dignified, yet functional new poetic(s).
