Julião Sarmento's White Exit is a life-size, wall-mounted sculptural tableau produced in an edition of three. Each sculptural element is true to size and exactingly lifelike.

This work was released to coincide with the installation of a room devoted to Sarmento at the Tate Modern. Each work from the series is unique, based on slight variations in casting and craftsmanship.
