And The Entire Ceiling Is Mine

Taking place in Meta’s ex-office spaces at Shaftesbury Avenue, The Floor is Lava presents a modular stage, inviting 40 artists to showcase sculptural works that disrupt and subvert the utilitarian architecture of the office environment.  And the Entire Ceiling is Mine’ is a scaled model of The Monument, designed by
Christopher Wren and Robert Hooke to commemorate the 1666 Fire of London. Taking advantage of the available funding, the Monument’s original purpose was
to double up as a disguised instrument of scientific discovery and was built to be the largest (semi)functioning telescope in the world at the time.
