Installation view: a compositional experiment.

‘State of Being’ is a sculptural work (site installation) re-imagining the governments’ social housing movement for Heidelberg West (established in 1956), current real estate trends and ensuing gentrification. More directly the model dressed in black positioned on a cement table, with hooded face reflects a long held view of social housing residents stigmatised as outsider, a view proffering gentrification. The  distortions of dress and body perform an armiture of these motifs.
