Nothing is Finished, Nothing is Perfect, Nothing Lasts., - 2012

This architectural intervention was commissioned by Open Eye Gallery as part of their wall work series; works that use the exterior of the building. 'Nothing is finished, Nothing is Perfect, Nothing Lasts' refers to the Japanese ideas of Wabi and Sabi and the temporary perfection of a new building. The work is made from the same material as the wall cladding, Corian. Thermo-formed, it appears as if the corner of the building is beginning to unfold.
