steel frame, paint.

Formed
from a diagonal stack of plasterboard, elevated to eye level. Within the block
is a carved 10” sphere, visible from three tunnels that connect exterior with
interior.
Knowledge
of a complete sphere within the structure must largely be taken on trust, as it
cannot be viewed fully from outside. Influenced by the underground cities of
Kapodokya in Turkey, and architectural sculpture such as Conical Intersect by
Gordon Matta-Clark, the accumulative qualities of this cheap material are explored.
