Glimmer

Glimmer was exhibited as part of a group exhibition curated by Megakles Rogakos."CHAOS" was an exhibition that took place at the Bishopsgate Goodyard, a disused railway station, as an alternative gallery space in the heart of East London. The exhibition opened in July 2002.

For the exhibition at the Bishopsgate Goodsyard, Maslen & Mehra have taken over one of the giant arches under the train line to create a new work. This new work titled "Glimmer" finds a series of mirror-finish sculptures depicting strange and exotic plants and figures representing the recently extinct creatures, the thylacine and the moa. The sculptures are bathed in a powerful light, which make them shimmer and cast giant shadows against the crumbling walls like a modern-day cave painting telling a story.
