12-gauge galvanized steel wire, electrical posts, tree, existing architecture.
Site-specific installation, Skowhegan, Maine.
breaking distance is an installation that connects the Robert Lehman Library across the pond to two electrical outposts and a tree. The 12-gauge galvanized steel wire marks the space between the library and the electrical posts. I wanted to navigate the distance between each site and question how my subjective understanding of ‘landscape’ is unravelled through walking and marking space.
