Showroom

Lumber, door skin, hardware, 2 spy holes, 6'x6x'6'. (2007)
​This ‘performance installation’ - which has been exhibited in a few different cities - visitors are invited to donate objects or materials into a 1 foot square opening in a 6’x6’ cube centred in the gallery. Inside the cube is a mini studio with tools, electricity, assorted hardware and adhesives. Throughout the exhibition I create composite sculptures out of donated material in the spirit of the DIY culture of rural communities. These sculptures when finished are passed out of the “output” hole (also 1 foot square). Viewers can then place the work on the empty shelves provided on the floor. On the last day of the show, people can purchase a sculpture of their choice by donating two dollars. The sculpture was replaced with a card that had a written description of the sculpture. The money is donated to the gallery or a local cause.
