Safety Cones
2007
18' H x 9' W x 9' D
Blaze orange cast fiberglass, steel and acrylic windows
By increasing the dimensions of the familiar, simple geometric form the structure begins a dialogue with architecture rather than object.
Because of the considerable presence of the fluorescent conic markers they are contemporary totems, which immediately repel proximity.
As an architectural structure they say 'stay away, beware, danger'.
Installation at the Marta Museum, Herford Germany, 2009
