This work is a unique maquette for a larger work executed in 1993-94.

Gober appropriates neither norms nor forms from the straight world, but replaces them, literally constructs them all -- the sinks, the plywood sheets, the newspapers, bringing nothing 'readymade' across the abyss of difference.  Reincarnating these artifacts as extensions of his own true nature, he colonizes the straight world with them--so that, finally, if nothing else in the world of false facture confirms Gober's presence in it, these objects do. Dave Hickey (Exh. Cat., Robert Gober, Los Angeles, The Museum of Contemporary Art, 1997, p. 54)
