Custodian of the Ephemeral

The boundaries between fiction:reality, presentation:representation, participant:spectator, converge as the viewer’s own histories, associations, and memories are shared with the installation. The Custodian Of The Ephemeral is a portrait comprised of handmade sculptures, miniature and life-like, of daily objects used regularly by this individual. The life behind this portrait is slowly revealed to the viewer as they create a narrative grounded by the familiarity of the objects.The voyeur slowly becomes the voyee corrupting the relationship between the individual and the work creating a disorienting space of connection and estrangement in which a shared portraiture can transpire.
