allowed our edges to merge
"In allowed our edges to merge, sculptures and installations highlight different ecosystems found in the natural world and their relationship to the built environment. Latex casts of cypress knees merge with those of architectural fragments, emerging from a brick wall. Cypress trees thrive in wet environments thanks to their deep root systems, with “knees” that exchange oxygen to stabilize in waterlogged soils. Trosclair casts cypress knees specific to residential suburban communities, noting how the gnarled roots return to sites despite repeated extermination because they blindly remember a time when the area was subaquatic. In casting the roots and meditating on this pattern, Trosclair ruminates on the equilibrium of breath, how inhale leads to exhale, collapse leads to expansion, and on and on."
