Paper Den Membrane

Throughout various zones in the rural banality of the countryside there are usually dens, sometimes made by inhabitants of that space, or unknown visitors, strange interventions sitting somewhere between the personal and the eerie. 

​A den is a hideaway but it could also signify a meeting point between an internal world and an external one, a shroud that contains the contradiction of being, but not being seen, a membrane between worlds. This den is an interior shelter inside an interior space as an expanded format painting. It explores dual environments as factors that point towards a paradox of co-reliance. The surrounding objects describe a kind of rhythmic deconstruction or chain of mutability.
