Will it Bow -Kerrigan & Gage Salnikowski
Will it Bow is presented by Cluster Festival and Video Pool Media Arts Centre.
May 27 – August 1, 2026
Step into the living room—part set, part signal—as Will It Bow? unfolds in an uncanny broadcast. Channelling 1990s children’s TV and scored with analog synths, everyday objects are bowed and transformed. Equal parts instructional and deconstructional, the installation invites visitors to sit, follow along, and experiment with the hidden acoustics of the familiar.
