Those Long Hot Summers

This work is created using a found plastic table which accidentally got burned during a summer evening. The use of vintage fabric echoes the kind of covering which may have previously covered such an object when it functioned as a piece of furniture. I wanted to create a dialogue between natural and manufactured materials suggesting an apparent continuity between the disparate textures and materials so that pre-exiting boundaries become fused and appear as one. Medium: Sculpture Materials: Found Charred Plastic, Found Wood, Vintage Fabric, Acrylic Paint Dimensions: W60cm x H120cm x D 40cm (irregular)
