Suture - A Modernist Heritage
Suture questions the footprints of man and time, tracing an interdependent dialogue between architectural marks and their contexts. The adjoining environment becomes an integral part of the medium.
I use reclaimed tin instead of newly extracted one. It carries along a history made of previous uses. Through a potentially endless circular process of melting and solidification, I shape it from context to context.
With a non-irreversible approach, Suture is immediately usable for new needs if it extinguishes its installation character: the "Nothing is created, nothing is destroyed, everything is transformed" principle of mass conservation or Lavoisier's law, 1789.
