Dering Street has been folded up, crumpled into a cube and stuffed into an attic. Richard Wilson (not that one) has taken a segment of this street and folded it in on itself. Next to it he’s recreated the negative space of the gallery’s stairwell, another massive sculpture nearby is based on an in-between area in the artist’s home. But why? Is he trying to force architecture to bend to his will? Or does he just see the world as a twisted, cubic, alternative spatial dimension where buildings are fluid and nothing is fixed? He’d be a terrible architect, but he’s a powerful artist.
