Peter Halley’s edition Glossary is based on his Heterotopia installation for the 2019 Venice Biennale. The term “heterotopia”, coined by Michel Foucault, refers to spaces that exist parallel to the outside world, simultaneously reflecting and destabilizing its order. Halley takes up this concept in his visual language by depicting prisons, cells, and conduits as abstract diagrams of social regulatory mechanisms – a visual translation of the structures that extend from computer chips to urban systems.
