A cross-shaped geometrical structure is installed at the center of the space. At each end is an opening that allows a glance inside. Observing from the outside, the object generates a sense of expansion in space via four arms stretched symmetrically, filling the space of the large hall. A glance into the arms, however, evokes the opposite feeling. The inner structure disallows open passage, and does not expose a visible horizon; instead, it presents convergence into infinite depth created by an optical illusion. The focal point of Center of Space is unreachable, ungraspable and unrealizable.
In continuation of works by 1960s minimalist artists, such as Sol LeWitt, Robert Morris and Dan Flavin, this installation is like an abstract contemplation on the boundaries of form vis-à-vis the limitations of vision.
