Another piece from the gallery is installed on the mezzanine, next to the Tatler Bar. Polyhedron, a work by Chinese artist Julie Zhu, was inspired by a polyhedral lamp that she deconstructed into a two-dimensional form. Numerous semicircles have been painstakingly hand-drawn onto the geometric form at the centre of the canvas. The polyhedron is a metaphor for the multifaceted elements of a person’s identity—both the qualities intrinsic to the individual and the characteristics shaped by our social roles and other circumstances. The 18k gold foil detailing evokes the brightness and vitality of the sun, in contrast to the ephemeral human lifespan. The metallic detail also picks up the gold finish of the bar shelves and island counter.
