Greffe/Graft

This project was completed in Arles, France. I collected materials from old books in second hand shops, and pieces of wood and old screws found from around the town. I made a collage from images collected from the old books, and then glued the collage into a box I built out of the bits of wood. I built a light into the face of the box, along with a peep-hole (french name; judas optique) to see into the box. I then covered the box with cement, and attached it to a hook on this house (the house looked abandoned). To see the collage one has to look through the peep-hole and press the button to turn the light on.
