Tim Etchells: Wait Here (Double Line)
For Berwick Barracks’ the temporary installation Wait Here (Double Line) comprises a new version of Etchells’ 2008 neon work, the full text for which reads ‘Wait Here I Have Gone to Get Help’. Visible above the gatehouse entrance of the town’s former military barracks, Etchells’ work makes a playful intervention into the site invoking an imaginary situation of peril and a fictitious mission to gather support. Long a home for troops on call for missions further North or abroad – the Barracks is recast by Etchells as the location for another kind of story about danger and the need for caution or defence.
