Lost Threads- two hearths

Lost Threads- two hearths is a work that recalls memories of a safe place. The fireplaces are part of a series of works that involved taking impressions in latex of architectural components. The work hints at the transience most of us experience in terms of the homes we inhabit in a lifetime. Fractured or fragile architecture is a favoured theme of contemporary art, particularly as a metaphor for the unsettled conditions and churn of the 21st century.
