Model man: Thomas Demand on ’Latent Forms’
Over the last few years, the artist Thomas Demand has bounced between Berlin and LA. For the last two years he has also bounced further along to Tokyo to spend time in the offices of the architects Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa, better known as SANAA. Demand watched Sanaa’s studio at work; more specifically, he took pictures of their architectural models, or thought processes, problem solving and utopian urges in paper and cardboard. Demand took pictures close up, creating strange abstracts; fragments of ideas of buildings that might never be. The results are currently on display at Sprüth Magers in London in a show titled 'Latent Forms'.
