Influenced by urban public spaces that are under destruction and/or construction, signifying precariousness, hazards, security and insecurity, I created an archive derived from building construction sites and street works through photography and collected materials. It is from this archive I experimented through painting, mixed media and ceramics.
I also drew from critical theories investigating how rubble from ruins can possess multiple, layered and diverse meanings through their “readings” of them. This includes writings by Tim Edensor about industrial ruins from, Industrial Ruins: Spaces, Aesthetics and Materiality (2005) and writings by Eyal Weizman regarding Forensic Architecture including Forensic Architecture: Notes from Fields and Forums (2012). |
