Sculpture, 2023
little lies and counterweights is a set of counterweights produced with low-density foam, endowed to critique power and authority. Used to establish precise standards of measurement, counterweights belong to the worlds of trade, technics, and global politics. The counterweights here reference rules that are imposed and enforced by institutions and systems. With their distressed and eroded surfaces, her facsimiles mimic ruins, as if to comment on the erosion of hierarchies that once defined the society. The statement of the cylindrical forms lies in their inaccuracy, fakeness, and resistance to the precision and perfection for which the originals stand.
