Description
Sculpture and Installations
"The room was located in the old Mission Brewery building on Washington Street in San Diego. The walls were built of used brick, the floor was concrete. A prominent steel I-beam spanned the entire room, through the middle. Several windows remained open, and pigeons sometimes sat on the ledges. Glass shelves were built into the divided areas in the I-beam. Light boxes were built and installed inconspicuously atop the I-beam. The glass shelves were filled with found objects. 'Disposition' was a direct response to the powerful presence of this particular room. As a result, I felt I could do nothing but acknowledge the incredible ambiance of the room by emphasizing specific features, so rich in character." - Lynne Hendrick
