The Pew Project

2023
transformed photo copies
each of 48 8 1/2 x 11 inches

I printed 48 images of the pew. I consciously forced myself to see the images as lines, colors, and shapes on a page rather than representations of a functional object. With pencil, knife, paper, and glue I dissected, wrinkled, sliced, cut, and collaged the images. Following these transformations, I looked at each from a different perspective and annotated each proposing functional/sculptural reconstructions of a pew.
