rachel, william and baudrillard
Rachel Whiteread's latest installation at Tate Modern... she created a gigantic labyrinth-like structure, entitled EMBANKMENT, made from 14,000 casts of the inside of different boxes, stacked to occupy this monumental space. The form of a cardboard box has been chosen because of its associations with the storage of intimate personal items and to invoke the sense of mystery surrounding ideas of what a sealed box might contain. I wanted to climb to the top and plant a singapore flag at the top but was told that I would be deported back home, never to return again, I changed my mind. I sat on it though.
other works by her her her her her....
the vandalism goes so well with the installation... i love her works...
have you ever wondered how Jean Baudrillard looks like... here he is
The old balding one on the right lar
To see the World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.
- William Blake
