'TIME FOLD' statue by PETROC SESTI
This is the description written next to the statue:
TIME FOLD, 2013 PETROC SESTI (B.1973-)
Petroc Sesti is a British artist based in London and currently representing Great Britain at the 9th Shanghai Biennale. His work pushes the boundaries between art and science and goes beyond both.
Once captured by the presence of the object its hard to be released from its seductive grasp. Sesti's work confounds cognition and kindles curiosity. This is an art of subtle motion and intense emotion, of stillness and transcendence. The work is an irresistible invitation to the body, brain and imagination. By tickling our mind's ability to mirror itself in the object, Sesti succeeds in seducing the viewer into a world of speculation and anxiety.
TIME FOLD bends light like a prism, hypnotizing the viewer by reflecting on its ever-changing spiral motion, the turning world underfoot is still. To look deeper into the dancing mirror, perhaps we can glimpse timelessness.
