A sculpture installation.

Saturday 21 & Sunday 22 of May will be the construction/installation day.

Come by if you want to see the work in progress, produced 'in situ' at the Ministry of Casual Living.

"The MOCL in my mind is cloaked in intrigue. As is Victoria in general, as it pertains to its art and artists. There are pockets of activity and secretive cliques that share what they do with the public in a limited way. Perhaps all art communities have a kind of mystique.Nnot a native of Victoria, I found this to be particularly true here. I wanted to demonstrate how I felt in relation to the community here. The MOCL is ideal as it allows a site-specific work to show a sculptural depiction of an art myth.

The interior spheres are what is inaccessible, visible from the outside(ers) point of view through the plate-glass window. The swathing of the exterior of MCL allows a sensibility of inclusion with out providing true access.

Outside In

A cantankerous glow
the outside in
braves plucky eyelid’s weight
over waves of
coarse tears.
Tearing through
times’ wasting, a
quiet introversion.
Look out.
