Take my Lead, 2025

石心 (Take My Lead)

A red sculpture in the shape of a rock with text in Chinese and English that reads, “To experience this exhibition as the artist intended, please request the lift.”
The same red sculpture from a side angle. It is seated on the steps of a gray staircase inside a gallery and blocking access up the stairs.

  • About:
    Take My Lead is a collaboration between Timothy Blair and me for his exhibition As the Mountain Slides into the Sea. We made a sculpture in the form of a red, seated rock installed on the stairs to the second floor, guiding visitors toward the elevator and inviting them to experience the exhibition through our alternate mode of navigation
