Stumbling Block

Space is what arrests us, what our eyes glance over, obstacles, walls, vanishing points. Perimeters of architecture steer people to move and behave… walls and the size of a building and its materiality and distance from the street. It is visual, tactile and affects our psychological states. Stumbling Block considers the impact of the built environment on the human body. “I want to touch everything. To fill every hole in the asphalt, every crack in the granite. To lick the rust off the iron fence.”
