Nests, Shells, and Corners

Six artists rethink how we occupy everyday spaces: home, office, studio.
 
 Currently in the process of  installing for the Nests, Shells, and Corners exhibition that opens this Friday. The title is taken from three chapters in Bachelard's Poetics of Space

Something like this will probably happen for my piece...
 
 
We shall see...

Reminds me a lot of the Arman Retrospective I saw at the Centre Pompidou in Paris.


Full room installation view of The Day After. Burned furniture casted in bronze. Quality isn't so great because I had to sneak the picture with my phone but you can get the idea from the web picture below.
