“‘The Window Set’ does not break down the threshold between the body and its environment, but rather makes visible the ambient poetics of their complex interdependence. In nature, the dream, and the domestic, Koak explores the ways in which identity extends beyond ourselves , and in doing so, envisions the revolutionary potential of self-knowledge and intimacy － transforming tenderness and vulnerability into outward resistance. Like Bell’s work before her, Koak’s work positions femininity and tenderness as the domain of radical connection. Here－ to borrow the words of Ursula K. LeGuin－ resistance cannot be bought, or stumbled upon. Instead, it is contained within us, yet ripples outwards － in landscapes, spirits, bodies and homes.”
－ Ella Slater, from the brochure accompanying Koak, The Window Set.
