Imagine a gallery that has closed, its windows whitewashed, the whole place empty except for some crates that presumably used to protect artworks. Galleries have an eeriness anyway, but that feeling is amplified when they're empty. The gallery becomes generic again, ready to open up if a new use can be found.
