Artist, Gabriel Orozco: Elevator is a modified elevator cabin. I cut it horizontally, so, now it’s shorter, so now it has my height inside. When you walk inside, (which originally the idea is that you can walk inside the elevator, but anyway, you can imagine you know, when you are in an elevator, going up or down, you can feel it in the stomach sometimes. The body has some memory. You remember spaces. So in the case of the elevator, when you move some things and you distort it a little bit, you realize that the subject is transformed and then you are aware again.
I think that the idea of awareness is very important, how you, open up a situation of awareness for somebody. Because that’s a moment of happiness when you are aware about something and happiness in a very complex way.
