Mt. Marcy Couch
Mt. Marcy Couch
People today are living within a digital world diminishing the interaction they have with the natural environment. The connection between people and environment are highlighted as a geometric simplification of Mt. Marcy, the tallest mountain in New York State, takes the form of an oversized couch. These forms references the digital environment, our growing relationship to the living room and the loss of the natural landscape. Viewers can interact with Mt. Marcy Couch by sitting, laying and climbing on it as they enjoy a slice of the Adirondacks. Hopefully by interacting with the sculpture people begin to question their relationship between our digital, interior and exterior environments as they are merged into a single piece of furniture.
