Radio Cradle
2000, Installation at Vox Populi
Philadelphia, PA
32' L x 20' W x 10' H
The work is a gallery sized construction made of
corrugated cardboard, twine, wood, concrete and
light. Roll Call consists of two curving surfaces
suspended above the floor. A diminishing pathway
between the structures allows viewers limited
entrance. Thousands of thin cardboard strips laid on
edge (exposing the flutes of the corrugation) form the
sweeping planes. A jungle of twine suspends the
shape from the ceiling while a sub grid provides
rigidity. Lights mounted on the floor shine through
the millions of holes. The piece is influenced by my
fascination with scale models, repetition, light and
respect of engineering solutions as an aesthetic.
