Coffer
(2017)
With a nod to museum collections, the drawers in Coffer invite viewers to experience a different type of specimen. Each drawer offers an individual arrangement of artifacts that blends human figures with insects and birds, historical illustrations with modern photographs, and paper cutouts with entomological pins and thread.
Coffer is an interactive piece. You are encouraged to view it both from afar and up close, where you can open each drawer to reveal its interior.
