Transmeanderation Helix (3rd time’s a charm!)
Posted by David Mazure | Filed under Drawings, Installations
Below are images of Transmeanderation Helix. This is the third time I have displayed this particular drawing installation. The first incarnation at my solo exhibition Schema, seen here, was a little over 29 feet and included a second black vinyl portion. The second incarnation from my solo exhibition Organism, seen here, was a mere 13 feet. And, now, for Cohabitants, it has been transformed (cut down actually) to a little over 16 feet to fit the space in which is currently resides.
The reason I reference Transmeanderation Helix as a drawing installation is because each time it is is installed it is: 1. cut down to fit into the space provided by the gallery, 2. adhered directly to the wall and 3. framed by custom moulding that is cut, painted, and nailed directly to the wall in each new incarnation. In this sense, it can technically be considered a site-specific installation (though I’m using the interpretation of that term very loosely).
One final note: I would like to thank Ed Mazure (my father) for all of the photos that you have been seeing from the Cohabitants show. (The photos below are credited to both Ed Mazure and the lovely Kyra Dosch-Klemer).
