Studies for The Migrant Stone

[leilaelkayem]

“...two concrete cuboid sculptures occupy the gallery’s main space. Grotto-like interiors are visible inside the cubes through irregular openings in their smooth concrete walls. Formed by casting blocks of ice in concrete, the sculptures are indexical traces of the now-melted ice, only present as absence.”

River Avon book (1979)

“The book consists of thirty-four pages of handmade paper, each of which has been immersed in the mud of the source of the river and subsequently laid out to dry on the riverbank. Although the procedure is the same for every page, they are all unique. The river, the mud and the water have determined how they look.”
