"“We look through models onto the world and have to realize that these are constructions,” Demand has told interviewers many times over. Throughout the course of a career spanning more than three decades, the artist has rarely shown his own models, preferring to hint at their materiality in his photographs instead: small wrinkles or gaps left visible, the odd smudge or pencil mark. The exemplar exception is his transportive 2006 work Processo Grottesco, permanently held in the basement of Milan’s Fondazione Prada after Demand was convinced to keep and exhibit the model and supporting materials by the institution upon commissioning Grotto (2006) for another site in Venice."
