The family stand in the warehouse and gaze up at the giant sculpture which is made of sugar and stands at 35ft tall.
Created in an old factory, the massive artwork is of an African American women who sits sphinx-like in the centre of the room and is titled: ‘A Subtlety or the Marvelous Sugar Baby’
The artist, Kara Walker described the pose of the female as both submissive and domineering and said in a recent interview that she thought of the sphinx as ‘this woman-like creature or guardian of the city, the keeper of the riddle, the devourer of heroes.’
Walker is known for exploring issues of race, discrimination, sexual exploitation and power in her work.
