About The Artwork
INCOMPETENT RULERS is an installation full of things that are no longer useful or rather no longer useful as they had first been designed to be used. Folding rulers no longer measure -- now they make tiny chairs without seat bottoms so no one can use them properly. Properly is a word that doesn't fit in the world of this installation. All things that are more related to non-sense find a home. Even the rulers pictured in the small collages on the wall are not proper rulers, and we are thankful they don't really exist except in our imagination. The larger child's chair even has a croquet mallet arm if one needs to use it. The installation is composed of a wide variety of vintage found objects that include folding measures, croquet parts, children's blocks, furniture parts, piano hammer, wooden tennis racket, clogs, child's chair and hardware assembled with love.
