  Past Future Raft, 2009

Built from salvaged material, this sculptural contraption seems ambiguously connected to either wind power or waterpower, maybe both. It’s potential kinetic ability rests it firmly in waiting, and combined with the location of it within a gravel pit, one can’t escape the feeling of anticipation for high water and strong winds to make useful what rests as a relic today. Investigating the relationships between Nature and human intervention through material resourcefulness and the disorientation of time.
