2021
We were commissioned to design a publication to accompany internationally renowned artist Antony Gormley’s new commission at the National Gallery Singapore, Ng Teng Fong Roof Garden Gallery. Horizon Field Singapore (2021), invites visitors to walk through a vast matrix of aluminium rings, allowing them to co-create the experience by stepping through the rings. This new-site specific installation is complemented by three sculptures placed around the Gallery which present defining aspects of Gormley’s extensive study of the human body: Close V, Sense and Ferment. They also provide a wider context for Horizon Field Singapore, in which our own bodies become part of the work, and where we can reimagine our own relationship with our environment.
The hardcover features the namesake work, printed on fabric and embellished with a silver foiled title. The overarching design concept for this is driven by the interest in using typography to create forms and relationships with spaces. Structural title forms lend an extension of the sculptural nature of Gormley's works, leading readers to dive into the portfolio of beautifully reproduced coloured imagery of his works.
