• Antony Gormley’s Exposure goes through a metamorphosis, set in motion by your perspective. From a distance, a crouching figure appears as a connected whole, its metal parts coalescing at the head, throat, heart, stomach, and genitals. The figure invites and then overwhelms you with its scale and complexity, as the whole transforms into abstract intersections of metal. From a human body to a space frame. The open structure allows us to X-ray the figure, but closer inspection invites either sheer wonder or dissection of the mathematical principles that hold it together. The experience mirrors the process. Gormley took a plaster cast of his own body, and then asked engineers to develop it into a structurally sound system.
