Story
In 2016, Gavin Turk created a graphic ‘egg’ vinyl motif titled ‘Egg Balance’ for the Phoenix Unit, a rehabilitation unit for people with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. The egg is a signature for Gavin and repeatedly appears in his work.
“The Gavin Turk piece at the Phoenix Unit is an image of two balancing eggs. It is minimal and conceptual, and you might think it would be difficult to relate to, but patients and staff just loved it. It inspired one patient to start drawing, and reflect on her own experience. She talked about identifying with those eggs, feelings of hope and images of re- birth – this was at a time when she was incredibly low. So, we really learned to be open about how art can have wonderful and transformative effects.”
