Rubble > Rubble is Another Name for Interrupted Desire

Rubble is Another Name for Interrupted Desire is an accretion of positive plaster casts made from the vacuum-formed plastic residue of my consumer life. Beginning as an investigation of waste, the work grew to also consider stratification, connecting the compaction of sediment with the immensity of assembly-line order and consumption, in imagining what my (our) sedimentary layer might look like in 60 million years.
