NIDO 2007

Mircea Cantor made 'Nido', and I'm just gonna jump right in and try to get my head around this unexpected scene. So, imagine being Cantor, facing this… situation. There's a ping pong table, right? All clean lines and sporty vibes. But wait, it's like this domestic game got invaded by a whole lotta nature. Eggs, everywhere! A scattering of broken shells, like post-apocalyptic confetti, and then a perfect wire basket in the middle of the table, full of pristine eggs. What's Cantor getting at here? It’s like he's riffing on life and death, order and chaos. The fragility of an egg versus the hard edges of the table. This feels like a performance—a one-off intervention that messes with the familiar. It disrupts our expectations, right? It feels like an invitation to rethink things.
