Once a proud symbol of financial power, first as the Bank of New York in the 1960s and then as Chase Bank in the 1990s, this building no longer serves its original purpose. In an age shaped by a global pandemic and rapid digitalization, grand bank buildings like this have become obsolete. The meaning and function of this space have reached a turning point.
Anon constructs sculptural surfaces that express sensory layering, using color and texture as core visual language. Through repetitions of layering, tearing, rolling, and attaching, she creates bas-relief works using textiles, paper, and fiber. These forms stimulate both touch and sight, forming spaces that resonate emotionally. Her compositions, both rhythmic and organic, breathe quiet vitality into the architectural shell. In this exhibition, she lends warmth and emotional texture to a transitional space, gently illuminating the inner tremors of change.
The building is gently reactivated as a space for artistic and emotional encounter. Anon’s tactile surfaces and rhythmic compositions open a dialogue between past and present, transforming a former site of financial authority into a place of reflection, sensitivity, and renewed meaning.
