Untitled (12 tubs) is a sculptural gesture entwining the landscape with the small, intimate spaces of twelve suspended bathtubs. Facing inwards, the bathtubs create an interior space of chambers, allowing the viewer to simultaneously experience the extreme interior and exterior as the view of the Park invades the hollow piece. The bathtub, being a unit of measurement for the industrialized \u201caverage\u201d human mass, creates a space that systematizes the human form. This duality of function, both intimate in its closeness to the body and alienating in its quantification of flesh, transforms into an architectural element as the object repeats over and over again. The bathtub-wheel carves into the air, placing frames for the body in impossible positions in space.<\/p>\n
