What is the performance?
Wang remains rooted to one patch of grass while pivoting, folding and extending within a wearable translucent structure. The form responds imperfectly to the body, while wind, daylight, breath and the park’s own sounds become part of the work. There is no music or soundtrack.
It is presented by Zarastro Art during Frieze Sculpture 2026. The organiser says the exact position within the English Gardens will be announced before the performance, so check the ticket page on the day.
