Lot Essay

‘We have a very elastic relationship to scale, in the same way that we’re not true to one material or medium and we prefer not to create some kind of ‘logo aesthetics’’
(M. Elmgreen & I. Dragset, quoted in 'Interview with Elmgreen & Dragset', The White Review, Issue 30, August 2011, p. 21).
