Clay Tower

This work consists of faint pencil line drawing over photographic images printed on paper. In the photographs, a tower of clay has been haphazardly constructed and placed on someone’s knee: the images capture the minute adjustments of the person’s posture as he tries to prevent the tower from collapsing. This piece thus shows the sculptural reality created through the combination of the clay tower and the person’s body. But even so, the frozen picture plane of the work captures the changes and mobility in the body and are concealed in the postures used to support the clay tower, as well as the very moments in which this state is maintained.
