Nest 1
2015
Wood, steel, rope.
Bundling sticks together with my family was an
essential part in preparing for the winter. During the spring and summer we
would stack tall mounts of bundles that would later serve as the starter to every
fire we lit; it`s warmth gathered us once more to escape the cold like birds in
a nest.
Through the process of creating this piece with
the help of friends, I am preserving memories of a family that no longer exist.
The space within the hive like dome creates a sense of comfort and privacy,
like that of a nest or the warmth of a fire against the cold. Here I reflect
upon the power of memories, reinterpreting them into new concepts.
