In Focus: Antony Gormley’s Amazonian Field | White Cube

Amazonian Field is described by Gormley as an "occupation of cultural space" by the powerless – the thousands of dumb, mute, unformed clay figures that make up this installation. In this film, Gormley reflects on how the work evokes our overpopulated world and the continual destruction of our natural environment. Discussing how the real subject of Amazonian Field is the viewer, Gormley suggests that the work is an attempt to highlight human agency and the ability we have to control our future.
