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.
