Castles In The Sky

By Robin Tarbet 2021 - 2024

​A series of cast concrete corbels which display a collection of computer heatsinks. 

Heatsinks are intricate metal forms engineered purely for their cooling air function within computers, yet with such architectural characteristics and formal qualities when displayed out of context they become miniature readymade sculptures. As a growing set, there is currently 20 in total and as an installation the work is installed in a single line of any quantity to fit a space.
