Tectonic Construction by Andreea Vasile Hoxha

by Andreea Vasile Hoxha (MLA ’20)

Landscape deeply engages with the materiality of the site, where tectonics offer multiple scales and processes for observation and manipulation. Tectonic Construction encapsulates a series of material samples collected in Franklin Park for further observation of aging and decay. The use of moss, lichen, and soil display a range of dynamic processes within days of being collected and enclosed with gel wax, while the rocks and dried grass seem to be frozen in time.
