DISPLACEMENTS

Displacements, 2010
Derangement, Center for Curatorial Studies, Bard College, Annandale-on-Hudson, NY
Curated by Michal Jachula

"The site-specific installation Displacements deals with situation, where the gallery space has become the subject of the work. A public sphere and its social aspect are inseparable from the individual psychological condition of experiencing it. The work takes the form of exhibition as a medium, executed through a system of sculptural, special and color interventions within the space of CCS Bard Galleries, establishing a spacio-temporal framework that responds to the theme of Derangement and determines the total experience of the exhibition." (Michal Jachula)

Supermarket stacks of Coca Cola bottles were the point of departure for this project. Based on the space in between the bottles on a shelf the shape of a unit was derived for installation.

KOSHIRAKURA TEMPORARY ROOF STRUCTURE

Koshirakura Landscape Workshop, Japan, 2002

In a close relationship with the community and landscape, our team constructed a TEMPORARY ROOF STRUCTURE to house 200 people. We used locally available materials, ‘surplus’ timber – off-cuts from the timber industry, discarded tree trunks and locally made rice-straw rope for the construction. The structure was designed for the annual celebration of the MOMIJI MATSURY (Maple Tree Festival).
