Produced on the occasion of Mire Lee’s exhibition The Heart of My Machine is Golden Lead at Secession, Vienna, 26 June–26 August, 2026.

Mire Lee’s large-scale installations are often composed of leaking mechanisms and quasi-organic structures that appear to drip and decay. Deliberately broken motorised elements seem to strain under their own operation, resisting the seamless efficiency associated with contemporary technological aesthetics. With texts from Haris Giannouras, Gemma Barricarte and Mire Lee. Designed by Sabo Day & Rosen Eveleigh.
