Caught Between Stations (Subject / Object #11) Installation

“…the whole of this world, is only object in relation to the subject, perception of the perceiver, in a word, representation.” - Arthur Schopenhauer Through the deconstruction of common objects I draw on a unique but shared experience with objects as well as the materials and the cognitive / emotive quotient they hold. The deconstruction in my practice is both literal and figurative. Objects are broken down, separated into their constituent materials and re-contextualized as both works of installation and sculpture. While in a figurative sense objects are drawn, simplified, and expressed as pure form in shallow wood sculptures. In either sense the deconstruction is an intervention that removes object-ness and replaces it with thing-ness. The liminal space between the original and it’s reconstituted form calls into question the intersection between the object and the subject. Within this framework perception operates as a filter and memory and language dictate the viewer’s relationship with the work. Through this semiotic engagement representations become loose affiliations. Familiarity, incongruity and absurdity meld into a homogenous object exposing subjectivity as subject matter while delving into the body / object dynamic.
