Lot Essay

‘This concern with the somatic effects of the work on the viewer's perception continued with PORE and LEARNING TO THINK, both works that introduce the body in impossible ways into architecture: LEARNING TO THINK, treating the body of the room as if it were a filled swimming pool’ (A. Gormley, quoted in ‘Suspended and Gravity Works, 1984 – 2012’, Antony Gormley, www.antonygormley.com/sculpture/item-view/id/225#p0).
