Glasgow School of Art Interim Show

Plein Soleil is an intimate, yellow universe of manipulated and repurposed garbage, accumulations of light, and collections of shadows that originiated in my Glasgow art studio over the course of seven months, but lives on as a traveling, ephemeral state of mind. Under continuous construction and forever evolving, Plein Soleil is a culmination of assembled objects, time, gestures, and residues, an ephemeral world built to one’s own measure. It is a space that strangely obscures the conventional delineations between real and artificial, organic and manipulated, new and discarded.

Plein Soleil — Finale is currently the final physical iteration of Plein Soleil. A garden shed within the gallery, Plein Soleil — Finale offers an intimate experience for each viewer, recreating the simpler, quieter moments that orginially grew from Plein Soleil — Studio.
