Kirsty Bell explores The Hayes Court Sitting Room (1979-2023), the new installation created by Marc Camille Chaimowicz for his exhibition at WIELS. Looking at questions of domesticity, fictional interiors and the shift of the home from workplace to artwork, she draws upon her previous texts on Chaimowicz including the chapter dedicated to him in her 2013 book, The Artist’s House.
