untitled [2006]
Concerning itself with sculpture, my practice explores the limits and edges of that medium.
The material qualities of mundane and everyday objects are exploited towards sculptural results. These results are often temporary and only exist through their documentation. Video and photography then become sculpture or remain as the sculptural artefact.
The video piece untitled (2006) demonstrates the exploration of video as sculpture. The work documents what can be seen as a series of attempts in setting up a particular sculptural situation, the artist’s body and a chair in equilibrium. Over the course of an hour both failures and successes are shown candidly.
