Concrete, Steel
I referred to Brutalist architecture in making this piece because the architectural movement was used in the U.K.’s great depression; concrete is inexpensive and strong. I use my legs to support myself, so like a structure they are strong enough to keep me standing upright. Emotionally and financially poor, I poured concrete into an alginate life-casted mold to reflect my poor state; what happens when your structure and grounding is abused- from yourself and from others?
