Built in the style of a traditional Japanese stone wall, this piece challenges our notion of place by locating a partial structure out of its architectural context.

 

In conversation with the pre-modern work of the Anoshu Stonemasons, the structure employs craft techniques of notzuratzumi, an architectural method that relies on untreated natural rock, and the sangitzumi style of cornerstone stacking.

​

The piece recognizes the inherent value of found natural materials and creates harmony through structure.
