Store.



Store is a performative sculpture that addresses the idea of value
in obsolescent objects. In experimenting with
placement and the natural aesthetics of the found material,
different degrees of value become projected onto each item.

Store. panoramic view

By the use of shelf's to physically "lift" the objects off the ground and
up to eye level. Here they can be examined much like a
new watch or can of un-opened soup. After the investigation takes place
a viewer can determine a value they see appropriate for the object.
Then they pick up receipt and complete it.

Receipt: silkscreen on pages of found encyclopedia from 1968, Volume P.
