Domestic Balances
Domestic Balances is a game of precision and patience. The goal is to build balance systems made out of everyday objects.
Through a very delicate, almost zen, process ephemeral sculptures emerge with unexpected and hypnotic movements.
The result is a display of these dynamic bodies that defy, not only gravity but also the common sense of boredom and normalcy attached to their integral parts. The objects no longer serve routinely expected purposes but are reinvented by breaking away from their original functions.
Domestic Balances is a metaphorical exercise about the search for the inner balance and it takes you to a state of meditation.
