“It seems to have retained its power. The piece is a relic of an action - Antony did eat that bread - and today people respond to it like a relic. It remains an evocative and powerful image."

“…connects the palpable, the perceivable and the imaginable, creating a relational field in which the passerby as well as the aware viewer is implied in a matrix of looking and being looked at.”

The human body, his own in particular, has been his subject in sculpture

that explores humanity, space and community.

Antony Gormley

“I have been interested in asking what is the nature of the space a human being inhabits. What I try to show is the space where the body was, not to represent the body itself."
