Another aspect to the installation was the idea of people and places which don't officially exist. As Jason explained, real estate prices may be really high right immediately next to the freeway (for stores, I guess... who wants to live right next to a freeway, what with the lights and noise and everything?), but at the freeway itself - on or under the freeway, it falls to zero. A gap, a lacuna in the graph. The hobos who live there likewise are not officially counted on the census... maybe they don't pay taxes, maybe they don't receive welfare or social security. I'm not really sure how all this works.
In these places, these no man's land places, under the freeways, the world is upside down. Thus, the shopping carts.
One thing I did quite like about the carts - though at first glance they seemed superfluous, or, that is to say, extra and separate, with separate themes and ideas from the rest of the installation, once it was explained, they actually really kind of work. It all goes back to suburbanization, and the way our lives are centered around transportation.
In the cities, you don't need huge shopping carts. You can't even fit huge shopping carts down the aisles in your tiny Midtown Manhattan grocery, and even if you could, do you have an SUV you're going to load up with all those groceries? Where is your SUV parked? Where are you going to store so many groceries in your tiny Midtown Manhattan studio apartment?
No. Cities are organized around the scale of people - not around the scale of trucks and SUVs. We have sidewalks, not freeways, and little shopping baskets to buy just enough to last a few days, or a week, just enough to be able to carry back home, by foot, or by subway.
This is where suburbanization comes in. The expansion of the size of the spaces we live in leads to a more impersonal lifestyle. We cut ourselves off from human interaction, spending so much time in our cars, where we interact less, are less connected, than the pedestrians walking on the sidewalks, even if they're not actively interacting. We put up barriers around ourselves, and devote sooo much space to parking and to driving, less and less space to human space - to living space.
And it goes on....
Paul Noble Marble Hall Exhibition at Laing Art Gallery, Newcastle 2011-2014
Paul Noble Marble Hall situates Noble’s own art, centred on his huge tapestry villa joe, within the historical context of the Laing’s architecture and collections. Using archive photographs dating to around the time of the opening of the Gallery in 1904, the artist re-created the early appearance of the Hall with plants. The plants also refer to Noble’s interest in exploring the boundary between the natural world and cultural constructs. This theme is echoed in the images on his ‘artist designed’ wallpaper, featuring antique plinths interspersed with vegetation.
Paul Noble’s tapestry has been purchased for the Gallery with the aid of substantial grants. The artist has made a gift of a ceramic sculpture, seven, which was part of a large group incorporated in the original installation. The piece is covered with a thick shiny glaze inspired by those used in traditional Japanese ceramics. It is presented on a carved wooden stand in the style of Chinese ‘scholars’ stones’ – naturally occurring rocks selected for particular qualities such as shape and surface these are traditionally placed on pedestals.
The tapestry and ceramic link directly to the Laing’s collection, and central to the installation is Henry Moore’s large bronze sculpture Seated Woman: Thin Neck. Noble has made an in-depth study of Moore, who famously liked to go beach-combing in search of flints and pebbles eroded into inspiring shapes. Noble’s ceramics are diminutive versions of the organic sculptures made by Moore in response to his beach-combing collection, reducing the monumentality of Moore’s sculptures to the scale and status of ornaments.
The ceramic piece realises in three-dimensional form the precious collection of objects housed in ‘villa joe’, which features in the artist’s tapestry of the same title. The building is named after Joseph Holtzman, editor-in-chief and art director of the cult décor magazine Nest, who is known for his meticulously hyper-decorated Manhattan apartment, in which the juxtaposition of every object is fine-tuned. Through the glass walls of Holtzman’s museum, as shown in the bottom left-hand side of the tapestry, one can see the exhibits neatly laid out. There is a jarring contrast between the modern, cultured museum and the rough, monumental forms of the natural landscape surrounding and dwarfing it.

"To Play Upon a Constant Note: Memory, Sustained and Unwavering"
Global Citizenship Conference; The Faces of Genocide
April 12, 2018 — at West Valley College
Cement, barbed wire, found objects
***********************
To play upon a constant note: memory, sustained and unwavering
Gathering images of victims of genocide for research I found myself paralyzed with the constant question of what exactly would allow one to survive another day, both mentally and emotionally, in such a cruel and horrific situation. These men, women and children, who stare from behind, but beyond cement pylons laced with barbed wire and rebar, stripped of all intimate and worldly possessions, and denied worth and dignity, on what and where did they find an unflinching strength and will to live? Orphaned children who today squat beside rows of mothers and fathers and older siblings slaughtered during the night, children who barely understand the concept of life and death, on what will they base a future? In such extreme inhumanity on what does one’s will to live, love and survive find its sustenance?
Could I make this question one with which I could become more intimate? I asked myself if fate were to have placed me in history or present as a victim of genocide on what would I feed my will to survive, and my strength to resist despair and defeat. Memories … precious, sweet, simple … of things common and every day, these would be the fire of mind and soul. Perhaps the memory of serving a well-prepared meal, a reread and well-worn book, a child’s favorite toy, a comfy pair of shoes, music … the beach … little mementos and dog-eared photos, perhaps these intimate memories fueled those who suffered and yet survived for one more day. Memories escaping beyond the hardened pylons and suffocating lacework of wire and rebar …

An installation made as part of my current FIAD project.
At the end of a dimly lit corridor, a door-sized aperture of light appears inside a small room, as if cast in from the outside. Centred in the light is an anonymous silhouette, sometimes facing the viewer, other times standing calmly in profile.
Materials: Ink on acetate, overhead projector.
My favorite work of art at the Centre Pompidou in Paris. I stood in that room for ages, just staring at it... and taking pictures. :)
I've been making this web installation for a semi-secret event involving lots of friends. It was partially inspired by pictures I saw of an amazing packing tape installation in Berlin by a design collective called Numen, and by the work of a Japanese artist named Chiharu Shiota, but also it's been a chance for me to try out a new medium and play with a warehouse space that is absolutely huge.

The free standing door was one of the pieces of installation art on the festival site. Little kids found it fascinating. I had to wait only a little while for one of them to give me a good pose.
