Piero Tomassoni and Dima Srouji participated in the 6th Kochi-Muziris Biennale, curated by Nikhil Chopra with HH Art Spaces.

For this edition, titled For the time being, they were invited to conceive two collaborative spatial installations: an outdoor project for the historic Aspinwall House, and an indoor site-specific one for the KVJ Rice Godown, a heritage building repurposed for the first time as an exhibition venue.

At Aspinwall they presented a continuation of the series Time Reclaiming Structures, inaugurated in project form at that year’s Venice Architecture Biennale. In this iteration they experimented with small-scale architecture through several ‘watchhouses’ installed in the venue’s courtyard.

At KVJ Rice Godown the work stemmed from their first collaboration in 2023, inspired by Duchamp’s appropriated object Air of Paris, here expanded to become a site-specific suspended installation, accompanied by a reading area that they designed in the adjacent room as a further ‘space of decompression’.
