Guardhouse - croqui, 2025, ink on paper, 21 x 29,7 cm.

guardhouse

The guard will watch over the exhibition inside a guard booth.

Exhibition spaces are places of both visibility and invisibility. In many situations, the staff working there may go unnoticed.  In others, it is imperative that their actions be visible and impactful. In this case, it is necessary to use devices or tools to shift between visibility and invisibility. The guardhouse is a structure that allows for observing the space without exposure of the security guard’s physical body. In addition to shielding the employee’s body, the guardhouse creates a sense of surveillance for visitors to the space, as they imagine there might be someone inside, despite not knowing for certain. 

Seeking to always provide outstanding service to potential clients, Amador e Jr. Segurança Patrimonial Ltda. is bringing you Guardhouse. A temporary guardhouse will be set up within the exhibition space, where its employees will work.

Do not expose your staff. Safeguard the exhibition with Guardhouse!
