Antony Gormley: bodies in space

Thank you to a friend, CB, who sent me this link:

It's interesting to hear a sculptor discussing the space of bodies, the body as a site of potentiality and relational to architecture and site. When we close our eyes, we can become aware of the intimate subjective collective space of the body - a place of imagination and potential, a place that is objectless and dimensionless. This is the elemental world he seeks us to engage with - the darkness of the living body and somatic experience, as distinct from the technological world.

And, of course, I was so lucky to see his work at the mouth of the Mersey near Liverpool recently.
