VIEW FROM THE SIXTY-THIRD FLOOR: WERRIBEE PARK

Elizabeth Day, View from the Sixty-Third Floor, 2007, mixed media installation, Helen Lempriere Award finalist, Werribee Park, Victoria.

“The carpet works are both on the ground and simultaneously floating. They describe a contemporary subjective condition. One that is never and always at home, in process, in transit, but absent from Australia but here. Here and there. Inside and outside. Both.” Excerpt from Elizabeth Day, The Black, 2012.
