The chapel, with the Aqua et tempus installation, by Tom Carr. Provincial Government of Tarragona Modern Art Museum.

 

This installation, which was designed especially for the site where it stands, is the outcome of the exhibition of the same name that the artist held in this museum in 1997. The show had an antithesis, Ignis et tempus, which was presented at the same time in the CC Gallery in Graz.

Order and geometry are constant features in Tom Carr’s sculpture output. Shapes like the square, the triangle and the circle are presented in a wide variety of more or less fragile types, playing with the spaces, the air and the light that penetrates and surrounds them.
