The phrase "as big as a house" is often used to refer to someone's physical appearance in an unflattering manner. But, wouldn't that be something pretty miraculous? How can something so wondrous be unflattering? This series takes this idiom at its word to explore what it really means to be as big as a house via sculpture and video. The video pieces plaster themselves on different surfaces of homes in order to animate the inanimate. As you approach the structure, you're met with mountainous rolls slowly swaying. The sculptures within the series are lit with an anxious glow that invites you to spend time with its protrusions. In both aspects of this encounter, you are met with an object, a body, taking its moment to take up space. Make way!
