The work is comprised of two of SANAA’s flower shapes made of acrylic sitting in the gallery space. As a demonstration of the spatial effects of bending transparent materials and the examination of personal space, privacy and publicness it is quite effective.
It is at ground level though, where the edge of the acrylic inscribes a thin white line on the concrete floor and there is a slight shift in light level within the curves that the clarity of the linework becomes clear, defined by weightless walls.
