Along with their ecological function tree pits provide residents with a public place to display their creations, ranging from miniature landscapes to eclectic floral designs. In a similar way my installation embraces the expressive side of tree pits. My piece consists of translucent, curvilinear components. These are suspended from a net-like structure, held up by aluminum rods. The work’s dissimilar materials include: industrial spring-steel wire, buttons, millinery fabric, packaging mesh and laboratory glass tubes. Many of these materials are present at the installation site, from racks of clothing, to structural and architectural details of buildings on the block. As the viewers move through my installation they observe a shifting of translucent overlays . Their movement instigates rounds of optical reconfigurations and transformations, as the mix of shapes and ambiguously implied functions conjure free associations. Through these intertwined processes the installation engages and questions subtle modes of perception.
