Artist Statement:
Artist webpage:
www.markportersculpture.com
Fusing found objects and his
own custom-made creations,
Mark Porter produces
one-of-a-kind pieces that
gradually transform themselves
— and the gallery — as the
show progresses. The
mechanical-drawings-turned-scul
ptures in Nurture/Alter mimic
the irregularity of human
actions and portray narratives
through a series of projected
images, videos, and fluid
expulsions. Porter places his
project blueprints next to the
sculptures to aid in the
understanding of their
development, which continues
free of his influence for the
duration of the exhibition.
Check out the show sooner than
later, though, so you can
observe the counterproductive
movements of Porter's work
before it slowly
self-destructs.
