Throughout his practice, the German artist Thomas Demand rebuilds the world in paper, meticulously constructing life-sized models of everyday spaces or scenes. Te scene is photographed, and the models destroyed.
Demand is in Australia as the curator of the 38th Kaldor Public Art Project and here, it is the exhibition itself that becomes the artwork.
Inspired by a work by Sol LeWitt, Demand has recreated the lines of the canvas in the three dimensional space of the gallery: walls float, suspended from wires, their skins wrapped in the colours of clay, moss, cobalt, and lemon.
