‘This body of work proposes a series of houses, intended as monuments referencing everyday activities. These activities and related behaviors are framed by dramatically shifting expectations of what is appropriate. The homes are reflective places to see into and out from. They are sympathetic sites for constructing refreshed perspectives, armatures for standing up.
Each building is assembled from images of objects touched by the intended owner of the house. In Retired Construction Worker House, the images come from the garden where he spends his retirement growing flowers and vegetables. Teenage Hockey Player House is built from photographs of standard protective equipment found in a hockey bag. House for Businesswoman shows the contents collected in a purse and articles of office clothing.
