This sculpture actually opens and closes back up. I was reminded of Lilian Tone's lecture on Lygia Clark, since there's a parallel between Sarah's work and Clark's, but also because both bodies of work cause a conundrum for public institutions and curators. Since these pieces are meant to be interacted with, putting them behind a glass vitrine would result in killing an integral part of the idea, but allowing people to interact with them threatens the preservation of these sculptures. So it becomes a catch-22. |
