why:
messenger is a totem for castaway moments. It combines the ruins of past work and the burned scraps and ephemera of studio detritus. Former sculptures and installations are given new life as elements are scabbed and fused together. Surfaces are embellished with a baroque renewal. A sculpture at home in the food court of a shuttered and crumbling mall.
