Space

Space defined
Our property backs onto the local primary school, very good it is too. While some of the neighbours may complain about their view being blocked, lucky for us it stops right on the edge of our boundary. We have been able to watch the building works grow from the ground up, where once there was nothing there are now frames, foundations, the roof is going on over the pretty pink framing timber.

The concept of space being contained or defined has been interesting to follow over this project. It has helped start a small series of works. These relate to the patterns formed by the timber frames as they begin to define and enlose space. They have stood for weeks as a skeleton waiting for a skin, waiting for the finished product which will no doubt impress the neighbours in the end, to be formulated out of vacant nothing.



Works in progress
