A refined dance of variables harnessed to follow a direct path from one point to another, held together only by our desire to see clearly what is loosely defined. The installation “What? Blocks Priorities” consists of fleshy, wood blocks that have had icons systematically burned into them. Each symbol or icon represents a different societal and individual priority that the viewer is then asked to place in order of importance. (That’s right, you are asked to touch it) When two or more priorities are seen as having equal value then those blocks are stacked one on top of each other. The result is a visual landscape of the viewer’s priorities and a deeper reflection on the complexity of finding a simpler life. | |
