Overview

""This sculpture interrogates the liminality of post-industrial silence."" Translation: It's a rusted radiator in a white room, and it costs more than your mortgage. If you've ever stood in a gallery feeling like a philistine because you didn't ""get"" a pile of bricks, or if you've ever lived in a ""machine for living"" that felt more like a ""container for misery"", you've been a victim of the pseudoprofound. In Gilded Shell, I comment on the aesthetic gaslighting of the modern era. From the leaking roofs of modernist icons to the semantic acrobatics of the avant-garde, I contend that true profundity shouldn't require a 500-page manual to be felt. It's time to stop nodding politely at the ""invisible suit"" and start trusting your eyes again in this age of high-brow nonsense.
