S E I Z U R E

Seizure. An installation in Elephant and Castle by Roger Hiorns. Nominated for the Turner Prize 2009. Comissioned by Artangel and the Jerwood Collective.

Threatening and enchanting. These beautiful blue crystals wink and twinkle with every movement of your gaze. Light glints off their razor sharp edges reminding you not to get too close. One stumble and you could be lacerated, but how pretty the warm, seeping, shiny red would be in contrast to these cold blue crystals.
