This is it! What my work since September has been building up to!
It failed the safe test of allowing people to walk on it before it even begun because I picked up a tile and it shattered in my hands, however, this is not a bad thing because the ability to stand on it was more of a novelty than anything else. The work is more effective as a sculpture forcing people to observe it and perceive its meaning.
I have inserted images of the 91 grids of Castle Street in every box then covered a majority of the boxes with the slate tiles, it is my intention that the viewer will understand the piece as a direct comment of what we know is beneath our feet literally illuminating the little knowledge we have of a space we use.
