For What You Were
Installation, zines, charcoal on bond paper, charcoal sticks, charcoal powder, found box, found alter, 2016
A piece created for a members project at Struts Gallery & Faucet Media Arts Centre. This piece expands a zine of the same title into an installation, creating a small alter with copies of the zine, a small box filled with charcoal powder and the remains of the charcoal sticks used to create the black rectangular sheet behind the altar. This sheet was created by taping together multiple sheets of 8.5” x 11” printer paper coated in charcoal. The sheet was made to be the size of a doorway or coffin and the piece an homage to a friend we lost in May of that year.
