This work is inspired by the curved staircases so much a part of Montreal's identity.
Here, the staircase twists into a knot, deconstructing the vertical symbolism
normally attributed to stairs, and takes us through an infinite cycle of revolutions,
where, from one transformation to the next, all that rises comes down again. |
