Armature is a site-specific sculpture developed for a permanently darkened window at Fotografisk Center in the Brown Meatpacking District - an area described in a safety survey as a “non-place.” The sculpture is hand-welded from steel lengths and structured as a grid referencing darkroom cropping frames. Functioning simultaneously as barrier and opening, the work points to the history of photography while addressing the site’s ambiguous ownership and function. Integrated into the building’s architecture, the sculpture transforms an inaccessible space into a visual and conceptual filter.
