Patterns of Distortions II

By Chinthaka Thenuwara 2015

By observing the social landscape of slave island and the skeletal framework of the Rio complex as interrelated environments. In treating the exhibition site as temporary monument, the artist conceives an organic architecture using discarded and re-assembled materials from around the building and its neighborhood. In this taxonomy of matter, we are made conscious of active urban processes as well as a the transition of a historical backdrop restored as a fantasy plot.

Medium: Site responsive installation and performance courtesy of the artist (wood, ceramic, plastic, metal, cardboard and paper)
