Anish Kapoor developed a major sculptural practice around voids, reflective surfaces, saturated pigment and monumental public form. Early pigment works appear to emerge from the floor; later polished steel sculptures absorb and distort surroundings, while dark cavities create unstable perceptions of depth.
