This wooden "grid" is a mathematically sensative composition adherent to the proportions of the 'Golden Mean' and directly references the work of Louise Nevelson. There is a thematic reference to Icarus who attempts to rise from the ashes of the modernists?my forefathers?yet is tethered to this pervasive movement. It represents a dichonomty of classical versus modern concepts of beauty.
