PN 01/PN 02

Sean Doll
PN Series, 2009
wood, stamped text, paint, bolts
approximately 16" x 16" x 4"

My inspiration for this work comes from modelling kits that can be purchased and put together. These sets come with pre-cut wood pieces and usually a small bottle of glue. By following detailed directions and diagrams, you can make your own dinosaur, car, etc.

I am interested in this idea of piecing things together to build something greater. I printed the "directions" directly onto the pieces. Upon examination, many of these directions make little to no sense or have no relevance being printed on the piece (ie. "rear piece" and "top layer").
