Deconstructing the Present || (Re)constructing the Past

2018-2019




A space to hold not objects or possessions, but energy, memory, maybe even dreams. A built space, an imagined universe.

A space whose identity will forever anticipate definition. A room being built and unbuilt. An architecture without utility. An architecture for memory. An echo rendered in material.

This project builds on earlier bodies of work, including Going, going, The Futile Archive (30 Days), and Meditations on a Dwelling.
