The Dance Floor

This piece is an installation of one moving/packing blanket and 36 concrete casts of sections of moving blankets. The work explores ideas around the life of objects and their storage, value, and preciousness. The use of the blanket suggests protection of an object, and in this protection is implied vulnerability. The work also investigates power and vulnerability through the use of soft and heavy/hard materials.
