Created with long-time collaborator Anish Kapoor, Orbit engages with a new language of ‘tower’, refusing to adhere to prevailing typological paradigms. The geometry of the nonlinear in its purest form, instead of going up in a straight line, the creation is an ‘orbit’ – a continuous loop from the start to the finish that goes around and comes back on itself. One strand is all there is, overlapping, moving in space to create a vertical arabesque. Art as structure.
