Orange Crushed House
at Nuit Blanche in Toronto
I was asked to build an installation for the “Nuit Blanche” in Toronto. The result was an Orange Crushed House. The sculpture relates to my investigations of relations between old and new architecture as well as large and small structures.
It reflects some of my thoughts provoked by my last month’s visit to the “People Meet in Architecture” the 2010 Biennale in Venice. The Orange Crushed Hose, which seems as if it was squeezed by elements of a façade of a large existing building on Beverley Street in Toronto, portrays how one architecture can be overpowered by another.
