Description
Displacements and disorientations of size and scale appear in the intricately constructed Model for a Weather Vane, 2012. While a desk lamp affixed to the wall evokes the sun, the sculpture’s multiple arms, supported by a large rock resting on a wooden base, are connected to a diverse range of natural and manmade objects including a cactus and a spirit level. Sze’s works have often referred to instruments of measure and mapping as well as the worlds they strive to measure. Preoccupied with conceptions of how we continually locate ourselves within space, they unfold as investigations of the psychological, and even emotional, understandings of our environment.
