A bespoke freestanding circular room constructed from used clinker bricks reflecting the dimensions of a 19th century domestic brick ice house was sited in the centre of the outdoor exhibition space of Kelly’s garden, Salamanca Arts Centre. The brick structure contained a white painted interior and a rooftop plot sown with a green manure crop. For the duration of the exhibition the form of the sculpture was in a state of slow transition. For the first 2 and half weeks of the exhibition the structure housed a 1.2 metre cube ice block that melted slowly, its melt retarded by the insulating qualities of the double-lined bricks and sod roof. As the ice slowly melted, the crop slowly grew, presenting a form in dynamic flux, the only constant being the brick structure. Curated by Sean Kelly.
