Turning The Place Over

Leaving Liverpool's Moorfields Station one day, I was stopped in my tracks when I saw part of the building opposite starting to move! "Turning The Place Over" was an installation by sculptor Richard Wilson in a redundant Liverpool office building. Part of the Liverpool Biennial celebration of 2007, this must be one of the most imaginative installations ever. Wilson cut an 8 metre hole in the building and installed a light sensitive mechanism to turn the disc inside out. Watch the Youtube video to see the full sequence http://youtu.be/DBXwA0gcBm4
