About Untitled (Air Bed II)

“Untitled (Air Bed II)” is a sculpture created in 1992 by artist Rachel Whiteread. This artwork belongs to the art movements of Conceptual Art and Post-Minimalism. The artwork exemplifies the minimalist aesthetic and conceptual nature typical of Whiteread’s oeuvre.

The artwork features a rectangular form that appears to be a cast of an air mattress. The surface undulates in a series of linear, horizontal ridges, replicating the form of an inflatable bed. The material has a muted, translucent quality, suggesting it may be made from a semi-opaque resin or similar substance. The subtle variations in texture and color on the surface add to the overall tactile impression of the piece. The work stands upright and is installed directly on the ground, against a plain backdrop, emphasizing its sculptural presence and physicality.
