"We took it to the Jockey Club in November and inflated it," the curator recalls. "We looked at it outdoors, and I was able to go up the hill and see it from different angles. Then I realized it didn't belong in HKCEC because you'd only see it from one perspective walking in. This work needs to be seen from different levels."
"I don't think there'll be another opportunity to see Gravity from multiple floors and all angles," Erizku says. Here, the scale itself is a medium speaking directly to the weight of culture and history the artist is referencing. "I tried to create these layers by presenting certain objects, providing clues and ways to access the work from different perspectives," Erizku explains.
