so this piece is much more colourful, in this room, vthat are made out of sheets of wood. it feels slightly threatening, the way it's sort of leaning over towards us, as if it might fall and crush us. yes. i'm trying to use a lot of drama in this show. i think maybe i want the drama to almost overwhelm the, in a way, the quite ordered spaces that make up the british pavilion. i don't want to appear in anyway rude or dismissive, but if i was to describe this, this seems to be your mostjunk—like work. yes. it looks like... well, it is, yes. this work has a history, in the sense that all these elements here are abandoned components of a work that was going to go outside, but it became too difficult to use them and it was just left as a great stack in the studio, and i started to really like it as that. is beauty important in art? yes, it is, but i think... i mean, maybe this sounds very pedantic, i think there's beauty in apparently things that have ugliness about them. to be able to reveal great beauty in things that are quite abject. yes. i suppose i think i'm that kind of artist, you know, who wants to look at things that are condemned to the rubbish tip, both literally and metaphorically, and give them a fresh start. the artist phyllida barlow talking
