wood-wood revitalizes the threshold that exists between words, planes and spaces. Using materials that reference the university context of the gallery and integrating the surrounding interior into the work, the installation focuses on notions of friction, disorientation, overlaps and gaps, all companions of the in-between. The results challenge the smooth and seamless transitions of the Fibonacci Spiral that Pace University uses as its logo.
