'Null Structures is a series of sculptures blocking dirty or 'undesirable' spaces in and around the Archway Mall. When installed, the sculptures fulfil an authoritarian or prohibitive purpose, having been designed to stop or prevent the 'deviant' behaviour associated with the space.' Mathilda Fowler, 2008
