Labyrinth

Mark Wallinger is a painter, sculptor and video artist whose works explore a diverse range of subjects from the historic and mythic to the biographical and contemporary, layered with rich cultural references for the viewer to discover. The Underground has been the inspiration and location for two of his previous works, Angel (1997) and When Parallel Lines Meet at Infinity (1998/2001), filmed on the Circle line. He won the Turner Prize in 2007 for the installation State Britain, a meticulous recreation of Brian Haw’s 40-metre protest display at his one-man peace camp outside Parliament that was confiscated by the police the previous spring.
