The artwork stands at over 42m tall, and marks the corner of a new residential development in South Mumbai with an engineered textural display which serves as a place-maker as well as a bold architectural intervention.
The aesthetic is generated by giant angled ‘combs’ which glide around the radial corner of the structure and in doing so invert their tone by way of the studio’s distinctive use of material composition.
