Jeremy Blake’s three-part study of the residence of the widow Winchester, which grew from eight to 500 rooms over a period of 38 years, begins with a soul-searching in coloured folded images.

The centrepiece of Jeremy Blake’s moving triptych looks into the heart of the Winchester House. Hit hard by the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, interior construction continued nonetheless. Only differently.

In 1964, the dreamy Winchester House was given a spacey counterpart to go on dreaming: the “Century 21” cinema. The stylistic punchline of Jeremy Blake’s architectural trilogy.
