Roger Hiorns' work, Seizure, sees a re-appropriation of architectural space; taking a condemned building in South London, and filling it with concentrated Copper Sulphate solution. The shell of the building becomes host to a new material organism, creating new architectural atmospheres while largely maintaining the orginal volume.
