Embankment is a commission undertaken by Rachel Whiteread for the Tate Modern Turbine Hall. Contemporary sculptor Rachel Whiteread has a reputation for having created several pieces of public art and was awarded the Turner Prize for House in 1993. She created a Holocaust memorial in Viena, Austria, and created Monument in London’s Trafalgar Square. Embankment is a huge structure made from 14,000 casts of the inside of a variety of boxes that have been stacked in a variety of ways.
I took some photos at the Tate Modern gallery Turbine Hall a couple of days ago: Embankment photos
