The places we inhabit are often wounded or damaged by use and proximity. How do we restore, repair and revive these locations?
The recovery process involves temporary solutions designed for healing what is injured or infected. While seemingly self-sufficient structures undergo transformation, the temporary fixes preserve and protect the original. Flexible enough to be reconfigured or removed when circumstances change, these healing solutions insinuate themselves into the existing order of space. They cannot, however, insulate the objects as they change or face new attacks and abrasions.
