Floor Explanation; In 2010 I was invited to an artist party given by some
collectors. I walked into an incredible home with an incredible art collection and
thought, "My God, where would you ever put another piece of art? I know, the floor".
That thought developed into the idea of people standing on the art and looking down to
admire it. Hence, this piece was built, but like all my work, it starts as one thing
but quickly can become something else. I have no reverence to keeping the piece in it's
original conception. Although, with this piece, the idea of the audience standing on it
is so appealing that Floor retains the name Floor no matter what the configuration.
