Tate Britain Commission - Heather Phillipson Rapture No 1:Blowtorching The Bitten Peach
Heather Phillipson takes over the Tate Britan's grand central galleries with the latest commission titled 'Rapture No 1: Blowtorching the Bitten Peach'. Described by Phillipson as a ‘pre-post-historic environment’, the work and its title evoke an abundance of sensations and associations that resist coherence. The artist says she is attempting to ‘cultivate strangeness, and its potential to generate ecstatic experience’.
