Sagarika Sundaram: Reservoir
Discover the distinctive work of Sagarika Sundaram as she explores the sculptural possibilities of wool and felt in monumental, immersive and colourful ways.
Reservoir brings together an entirely new body of work by Sundaram, made especially for the exhibition. At its centre, Blue Mountain 2026 is a monumental sculpture stretching almost seven metres in length. Its expansive, undulating forms create cave-like spaces that you can move around and almost within.
Ebb & Flow: Bookworks by Yoko Terauchi from the Research Library
The Sculpture Research Library on the first floor of the Institute holds over 30,000 books, catalogues, journals and audio-visual materials dedicated to sculpture. Among them, artists’ books – conceived as artworks in their own right – form a distinctive and growing part of the collection, often developed through close collaboration between artists and curators.
This display focuses on five rare bookworks by Japanese artist Yoko Terauchi (b.1954) from our artists’ book collection.
