That artist was Rachel Whiteread and the work was House in East London. In On Space, Whiteread is in conversation with the art historian Briony Fer. Together, they discuss the urges and concerns that underpin Whiteread\u2019s work, from seminal works of the 1990s to her more recent projects, such as the site-specific commission unveiled in the summer of 2023 at Palazzo della Ragione in Bergamo, Italy, which responds to the experience and legacy of the COVID-19 pandemic. &amp;nbsp; [Drawing] is something I\u2019ve always done in the studio and it\u2019s a way of slowing things down, it\u2019s a way of being on my own, it\u2019s a way of meditating, a way of bringing some colour into my life. \u2013\u202fRachel Whiteread&amp;nbsp; Rachel Whiteread is a contemporary British artist working across sculpture and drawing, using casting to free her subject matter. Briony Fer is Professor of History of Art at University College and has published extensively on 20th century and contemporary art. Find images of the artwork discussed  here.
