If visitors entering the subterranean Tank gallery at the Art Gallery of NSW’s expansive new wing are rendered speechless, then Adrian Villar Rojas will be a “deeply happy artist” | LindaMorrissmh
came four years ago when the artist first descended a manhole ladder into the fuel bunker that had lain disused for decades. Inside was an underground space, its concrete cap held up by 125 columns, rising seven metres high.
“The installation I have created combines the architecture of the oil tank with moving lights that rove and sweep the space like sentient beings, slowly viewing and revealing many thousands of details. It is very much an experience that unfolds in time, in which not everything is known immediately.”Credit:In 2017 Rojas created an installation of human and animal figures, food and artifacts on the roof of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
“The light is constantly changing and evolving and the sculptures almost seem alive. It’s fascinating to watch, and audiences are going to be amazed, excited, inspired and a little taken aback.”
