Then I install them on site. Their transparency makes them a way of looking through them at the world and considering what it is to wear this world. They invite the viewer to consider how it would feel next to his or her skin.
They've been compared to snowflakes, since each is built
on an individual person, and to soap bubbles, as the
installation is temporary. They're also like the shed skins
of snakes. It makes some people think of people who
have passed away. They can be seen as the memory of
the space a person took up in space, which they're not
taking up just now, at least not in that place. A kind of
transcendence of the mundane packing materials they're
made of. They also call to mind to me questions of
packaging and femininity. I'm still figuring out what they're
about and would appreciate your ideas.
