click images below for slide show Starchitecture & The Bean Stalk, 2009-2010 explores the splendor of museum and gallery design and architecture’s ability to distract viewers from appreciating artworks on their own merit, spaces so cavernous as to dwarf all but the largest installations. When a viewer leaves a gallery do they remember the art, or the architecture? Though the models in the photographs are built as exact replicas, they are not exhibited as such, but rather as objects or images removed from their original context. In this case, the architecture, which so often competes with the art for center stage, becomes the art. Exhibiting the architectural models as objects, adjacent to the photographs, facilitates the understanding that the spaces are only as real as the exhibitions are. sculpture + installation media contact + links documentary cv + statement Six Flags The Aesthetic Beauty of Platonic Aberrations Discreet Works Starchitecture & The Bean Stalk God Is Canadian Watered Down Kegs Of Rum
