A keep is a strong central tower which is used as a dungeon or a fortress. Often, the keep is the most defended area of a castle, and as such may form the main habitation area, or contain important stores such as the armory, food, and the main water well, which would ensure survival during a siege. |
Keep is a showcase of video work, sculpture and painting, having seemingly nothing in common. Avoiding the limitations of a thematic show, Keep is of differences, lack of similarities and of open interpretation. |
