Rachel Whiteread is one of my favorite artists. A British artist and the first woman to win the Turner prize, her work consists of casting negative spaces. The inside of a room, the inside of a house, the space beneath a table, books on a shelf, etc.
Check her out, she’s made a lot of really interesting and beautiful work.
“Plinth” Cast resin.
Untitled (Table), cast resin. The space underneath a table cast in resin.
“House” Cast concrete.
“Ghost” Cast plaster. The inside of a room cast in plaster.
“Sequel IV"Cast Plaster a bookshelf with books cast in plaster.
“Spaces” Cast resin. The space underneath various chairs cast in resin.

I saw the bookshelf in someone’s house. They were rich as sin.

Interesting concept. I’d like to see the molds of these pieces as well. “Sequel IV” is the best and weirdest of this set .
