Installation at the MacDowell Colony, St. Peterborough, NH (2010).
“Floats” is a series of inflatable installations that solicit engagement through strategies of under-specification and excessive materiality. Rather than demonstrating a correlation between legibility and utility, under-specified objects have graspable forms but ambiguous uses. Likewise, intensified material deployment increases opportunities for sensory engagement, itself a catalyst for more sustained kinds of involvement.
