A floor-to-ceiling artwork, appearing on all sides of an elevator vestibule at the ‘Boundary Hotel’, situated on Boundary Street in East London.
The artwork was devised around a grid of boundary walls. Each segment is approximately 170mm square. The aim was to take an alternative approach to dealing with the seemingly dead space of an elevator interior, by immersing the visitor in an epic artwork, which is impossible to absorb in one short trip. Each journey offers a chance to study a new scene: a geometric toile de jouy, of sorts.
The project was commissioned by Sir Terence Conran, Lady Conran and Peter Prescott & Partners and was featured briefly in the 2011 film ‘360’, directed by Fernando Meirelles, starring Rachel Weisz.
15 limited edition giant prints were (and possibly still are) available directly from the artist, hand signed and numbered.
