Lauren Baker’s site-specific projections of her installation ‘Five Regrets – Five Truths’ floods a chamber of the crypt with mortality, cosmic inquiry, and the kind of reckoning that tends to arrive only in darkness.  

Five Regrets – Five Truths is a site-specific installation reflecting the most common truths spoken at the end of life. Five handwritten regrets are softly projected onto weathered tombstones within the crypt. The stones are uneven, imperfectly positioned, and marked by time, allowing the words to feel fragile, human, and unresolved rather than monumental. The handwriting remains intimate and understated - as if overheard rather than announced - inviting quiet introspection and a reckoning with how we choose to live. The five regrets read: I wish I'd lived a life true to myself. I wish I hadn't worked so hard. I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings. I wish I'd stayed in touch with my friends. I wish I'd let myself be happier.

Threshold speaks to the spaces between - the liminal zones where one reality dissolves and another has yet to form - suspended in pure possibility. Letter To Mother Earth, constructed from threaded sound waves, introduces a quiet address beyond the self, extending the work's reflection from personal regret to collective responsibility. Fairytale is an exploded ancient book, embedded with dynamite and diamond dust - fusing destruction creation and enchantment, which completes the installation. Together, these works expand the themes of memory, rupture, renewal, and memento mori.

Katya’s Space CIC presents Down the Rabbit Hole — a multidisciplinary group exhibition at London’s Crypt Gallery that invites artists to explore the themes of solitude, digital drift, and psychic change through the lens of post-pandemic reflection. Set within the gallery’s labyrinthine tunnels, the show mirrors the descent into metaphorical “rabbit holes” of isolation, imagination, and transformation.
