In their multidisciplinary conceptual practice, Lesutis & Miljević explore how relations become materially perceptible through encounters between language, histories, and bodies. Working across installation, sculpture, and original writing, they recontextualise the familiar to trace how relations become sedimented in things. Through compounding, subtraction, displacement, and inscription, their works invite viewers to read and reread materials and inhabit language, allowing meaning to emerge through encounter.
