Raw Wool Fleece Installation, Paris Gallery

5 October 2017 · Paris

Three columns of raw sheep fleece, each bound to a wooden stake with rope, rise from a parquet floor against a plain white gallery wall in Paris. The material is unprocessed — lanolin-heavy, matted in places, still carrying the density of the animal it came from. Organic mass arranged with formal precision: the repeating vertical rhythm gives the installation a sculptural authority that the individual fleece, left alone, would not own.
