Glass sculptures suggesting heating coils and functional implements assume a variety
of attitudes when
viewed from different
angles, and with subtly interlocking constructions, they uncannily convey motion; they also operate like Escher works in the
round.
Danh Vō and approach the proposition
of object making from very different
angles, and
viewed at such close proximity — at Marian Goodman Gallery and
round the corner at Frith Street Gallery respectively — the common tactic
of appropriating artefacts and materials serves most acutely to point up the differences between them, rather than similarities.
