Yr Room is a sculpture made from three layers of curtains that form a room. A mutable volume without weight, the curtains form doors and walls. It is theatrical and domestic. The artist enlists the viewer to experiment with the piece by changing the position of each curtain layer. It can be open like a pavilion or closed like a den. The drapes form blocks of color and create moirés patterns. They are soft and ephemeral yet define volume and presence. It is minimal and Baroque.
