To prop wedge and jar
In a series of tests I push materials to their limits, air is compressed and architectural space becomes a frame in
which to draw. Using the studio as a place to explore the works conform to the dimensions it offers. Through
the testing of weight and balance they become their own supporting structures, and through their material
form they re-imagine the space. Their forms, piercing through the space, provide new function as tools to
prop, wedge and jar. I’m interested in materials that poetically, conceptually and linguistically sit apart from
each other, allowing the temporary situations created through their arrangement to become points of actual
or implied tension. The works establish relationships between the domestic and the industrial, the heavy and
the weightless, the inside and outside.
