The artwork features a simple, minimalist sculpture composed of two vertical wooden beams placed on a pedestal. The beams are dark in color, with a slightly weathered and textured appearance, creating a striking visual contrast against the plain white background.

Lloyd Corporation is a collaborative project between Ali Eisa and Sebastian Lloyd Rees who have worked together since 2010. Their versaille practice includes sculpture, installation, print, video, social and public art, text and publications.

Lloyd Corporation’s continuous interchange between micro and macro perspectives reveal that the systems – of order, economy, politics, governance – are more obscure than we realise. ...
