Glassed Slab
2009
A monumental assemblage of industrial and protective materials, Glassed Slab brings together steel security glass, Plexiglas, fiberglass, wire mesh, plastic sheet, bubblewrap, silicone, and wire into a dense, layered structure that challenges conventional notions of architecture and sculpture. Tuazon's rough, hands-on approach is evident in the work's raw materiality, where barriers and building components typically associated with safety and containment are repurposed into a precarious yet commanding form. The piece reflects the artist's ongoing investigation into construction, shelter, and the physical labor embedded in making.
