Lost in the Memory Palace, a selected survey, takes as its focus Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller's work from the mid-1990s to today. Presenting key early installations such as The Dark Pool (1995) and The Muriel Lake Incident (1999) and recent works including The Killing Machine (2007) and Experiment in F# Minor (2013), the exhibition offers an opportunity to consider the important role of the room in their art. For Cardiff and Miller the room offers shelter from a stormy world. It is a place to withdraw and to convalesce; it is a site of mystery and danger, and in some instances, of death.
