a little heavy
/ 2402
A Little Bit Heavy comprises twenty one individual milled aluminum blocks, each six by six by two and a half inches, anodized in satin deep indigo with a single piece rendered in deep red.
Assembled, they form a two by two foot grid anchored to the wall—a monolithic presence defined by material weight and surface intelligence. Each block is carved with three distinct milling depths: a perfectly flat top surface, a middle layer of vertical scallops, and a deepest horizontal scalloped texture beneath. These layered cuts create a topography of touch—the surface shifts and catches light differently depending on angle and proximity. Yet each block is freed the moment it's removed, capable of infinite reconfiguration into tower forms and sculptural variations. The piece exists in tension between fixed grid and fluid assembly, heavy in material, rich in possibility, inviting both contemplation as a unified wall object and play as a modular system
