Space is constructed by the body in motion. The exterior placement of an interior geometry.

4600 shipping palettes were stacked in a gallery space, adjoining a courtyard of identical shape. Using elliptical geometry an ovoid volume was carved from the palette stack. Simultaneously, the removed pieces were reassembled in the courtyard as an ovoid solid.
The work functions as a scale, balancing positive and negative, apogee and centre. A lever of space.
