The Clear House

2004 | Sculpture | Acrylic sheet, wood, foam core, tape; powder painted steel pedestal

THE CLEAR HOUSE is made mostly of acrylic glass, wood and foam, a choice of material that allows insights from outside. And yet the unimpeded view suggested at first is obstructed, because the unconventional handling of architectural elements like walls or staircases controverts every logical, functional interior house structure.
