Gathering Gallery, London

From November 2024 to February 2025, Supacord carpet tiles were installed at Gathering Gallery in Soho, London, for A Message for Everybody, a solo exhibition by French artist Ndayé Kouagou. The exhibition combined performance, film, sculpture, and installation to explore themes of language, identity, and perception, creating a dreamlike, multi-sensory environment for visitors.

Supacord carpet tiles played a central role in the exhibition, acting as both a visual and conceptual extension of Kouagou’s themes. Bold geometric motifs, including arrows and the letters ‘A’ and ‘Z’, guided visitor movement while symbolizing beginnings, endings, and nonlinear narratives. Supacord’s modular design allowed precise installation across the complex gallery layout, providing a durable, comfortable, and visually striking foundation for the immersive experience.

Installation was carried out by Selby Contract Flooring, ensuring accuracy and quality, while all tiles were professionally uplifted and fully recycled at the end of the exhibition, supporting sustainability and circular design principles.

Overall, the project demonstrates how thoughtful material selection and design collaboration can enhance both the function and conceptual impact of a cultural space, integrating practical performance with artistic intention.
