Enclosures
This ongoing project investigates enclosures and circumscribed spaces as material and metaphorical structures that contain and constrain. A western house-form is utilized as the primary motif to express this idea. These are structures within which bodies may be simultaneously protected and restrained, and without which bodies may be excluded, endangered and ‘free’. The work considers both the socially-constructed and the materially-constituted aspects of boundaries that define objects, human identities, and spatial-political relations.
