The Making Of 5 Carlos Place
In Perfect Form
Sculptor Nick Hornby shares his vision behind the hanging sculpture he has created for 5 Carlos Place. Suspended from the ceiling above a staircase, the piece – a profile of Michelangelo’s David extruded at an exceptionally oblique angle – allows for different perspectives depending where the viewer is stood, made even more formidable by the juxtaposition of the stairway’s light.
