My current projects are taking shape in a Toronto warehouse space destined for demolition and involve building anew from what is destroyed and thoughtlessly disposed of. They engage with the present by focusing on the notion of sustainability to probe the strength of our connection over time to the space of our lived experience.
Both solid and provisional, man-made yet somehow organic, they are things rather than objects, random and intentional in equal measure, their function only ever suggested. It is a process-oriented exploration within the parameters of material sustainability and in the context of an endlessly changing modern world.
Using only natural, sustainable, or recycled materials, I document the process of creating anew out of what has been discarded, giving shape to a future in which imperfection and impermanence are unavoidable and meaning still to be determined.
