A Porous Boundary
Porcelain, Steel
Installation view
Metals are examined as a collaborator in precarity. A skeletal steel framework is brought into
tense relation with porcelain to subvert the very cultural expectation of structural coherence.
While the skeletal steel framework initially invokes a traditional paradigm of stability, subjecting
this armature to the firing process exposes its own latent precarity, prompting a partial
dissolution of its structural authority. What would be conventionally secure becomes the very
means of destabilisation: points of contact are engaged to stress, fissure, and pry apart the
ceramic body. The structure remains provisional and exposed, this integrated lattice considers
that relational dependency and structural coherence is never an intrinsic state but a continuous,
precarious negotiation between forces.
