What's the big idea?

Faisal Abdu' Allah appears to be such an artist. Exclusion, issues of privilege, voyeurism, genetics - all make their way into the explanatory text of his work. But these impositions remain generally unhelpful. Without the complex metaphorical scaffolding, the whole thing might come tumbling down around the artist's ears.

Garden Of Eden is a collaboration with the architect David Adjaye. The installation is entered through a darkened corridor, where we encounter a glass structure in a dim, red-lit space.

Though there doesn't appear to be much incentive, the first question is: is it possible to enter the empty glass structure? It is. Once inside, a puzzle presents itself: what is the barely decipherable text etched on the reflective surface of the floor? Having to crouch within nose distance to read it, big concepts struggle to declare themselves in an obfuscating, faintly adolescent kind of way.

The structure itself is a little bit Liam Gillick and a bit Douglas Gordon. But haven't we had enough of these 'perception-altering' installations?
