Billboards

installation \ 2010
wood, fasteners, variable dimensions; series of inkjet prints 17 x 21″

This body of work evolved from a process of sketching—by hand and digitally—structures resembling advertising billboards, into the construction of frame-like structures from wood. These different elements probe the gap between the “infinite” possibilities enabled by digital design and the limitations imposed by gravity and other properties of materiality. The billboard-like sculptural objects lack a strictly instrumental function, their ambiguous and abstract form thereby collapse the distinction between support-structure and screen-surface, animating it with possibility.
