Carbon Generations is an installation created from thousands of wooden blocks laminated with etchings, aquatints, stone lithographs, screenprints, photogravures, inkjet prints, and other printed matter depicting construction implements, building sites, and industrial manufacturing facilities. Existing in the contemporary context of construction-themed children’s media, Carbon Generations seeks to prompt the viewer to question the tensions revealed through these sanitized  imaginings of industrial activities. Constructed from salvaged materials from producing structural timber, the work seeks to recast the detritus of commercial activities into objects of interactive exploration and provocation. Visitors will be invited to make the transition from "viewer" to "builder" as they reassemble the components of the installation into new towers and structures. During the exhibition, visitors are able to spend time building structures (and inevitably, knocking them down).
