The Wanderers No. 1 — Rest and Relaxation

The Wanderers No. 1 — Rest & Relaxation

Rest & Relaxation is the first in The Wanderers, a series of one-of-a-kind camper sculptures. Each one is a small world unto itself, designed in 3D software, digitally unfolded, and cut by plotter from hand-painted, acid-free watercolor paper. The pieces are assembled by hand with bookbinding glue, detail by detail, over many hours.

The result is an object that holds its ground quietly on a shelf or windowsill and then, when you look at it, takes you somewhere else for a moment. I like to see these moments as mini-holidays for the mind. 

The title is borrowed in spirit from Ottessa Moshfegh's novel. Not the plot... just the longing for Rest and Relaxation, that inspired this dreamt-up vehicle. 

One of a kind. Includes bell jar.

Dimensions: 22 × 32 × 41 cm / 8.7 × 12.6 × 16.1 in.
