*Reinert’s work - the infrastructural interiors and facade-less buildings of the tunnel and underpass models - situates itself as a crossover of the gallery work of British artist Rachel Whiteread’s interior voids and other domestic castings, with the raw, visceral work of Evol’s miniature street scenes, murals and buildings on cardboard, and box-like/block like urban equipment.
