2X4 SPACE SCULPTURE

In the summer of 2002, the Center on Contemporary Art in Seattle hosted an exhibit called 'Blurred,' featuring work that blurs the boundaries between art and architecture. As an experiment for the show, designer James Harrison built a room-size structure by stacking short lengths of wood. Every piece was a two-foot long 2x4 (3.8 by 8.9 by 61 centimeters). 'The idea,' says Harrison, who was trained in both architecture and sculpture, 'was to see how much plasticity I could achieve out of a regularly repeated module.' It took him two days to cut the blocks and five days to stack them.
