This work is a maquette, investigating the potential of subtle form in an urban environment. The work would be sited adjacent to a building- attached and tenderly utilizing the building as a plinth. I wanted to create a tension between the elements of the work and the space it inhabits, pulling out from the building, the shadows would alter throughout the day, mapping the site. The work could be sited so that the buildings shadow itself folds on top of the work.
