Installation, sandstone, porcelain and clay | 2024

A layered installation composed of sandstone forms detached from a cliff near the seashore and porcelain and clay objects of varying thicknesses. In an attempt to revive and reinforce a material eroded by natural forces, the artist inserted porcelain and clay objects left as remnants from the process of creating the sculpture Territorial Continuity into the crevices of the structure. Although the combination appears cohesive and unified at first glance, its structural stability remains uncertain.

This installation was developed as part of the Human Shield project. Read more about the work
and its development in the Human Shield project page and The Human Shield Solo exhibition page.
