ANTONY GORMLEY – FIT
2016-10-03For this exhibition, Gormley has configured the gallery space into 15 chambers to create a series of dramatic physiological encounters in the form of a labyrinth. Visitors are faced with a choice of passage through differently sized, uniquely lit spaces where each room challenges or qualifies the experience of the last.
Framed as the sequel to ‘Model’, which was shown in 2012 at White Cube Bermondsey, the exhibition considers the relation of the individual to the built environment, the ‘making of places’ and resulting displacement. The exhibition makes reference to both the citizens of a city like London and the migrant seeking refuge. ‘Fit’ asks whether we as citizens identify with the forces that determine inclusion or exclusion from city or country.
Exhibition runs through to November 6th, 42016
