Produced on the occasion of Phillip Lai’s exhibtion at The Showroom, London, 26 February–30 March, 1997. With an essay by Francis McKee and an interview by Karina Daskalov.
Phillip Lai’s work at The Showroom involved the construction of objects and images which addressed ‘fluid’ states; the transformation via a soy-sauce fermentation unit, of solids to liquid and the absurd fusion, through biro drawn directly onto the gallery wall, of automatic drawing and the ‘letting’, or exhumation, of a consciousness.
