10 metal right angles and 3 pieces of wood Size Variable (Temporary modular public art piece that may be rearranged into any variable form by anyone.) 2001
All that remains of this unrealized modular public art concept are a few wrinkled Xerox copies of photographs. As the pieces and the photographs have long been discarded and lost, I have come to think of the Xerox documentation as the piece itself.
At the time I was hoping to display photographs of the modular sculpture in a variety of forms along a path that led up to it’s placement in a park. The parts could be used to make a temporary tent-like shelter, or an abstract sculpture. They could be strewn around, vandalized, or stolen. The idea was that it would really ‘public’, and the parts could be easily replaced, and would be, if necessary, during a chosen duration in a given location.
