‘Reconditioned’ is a series of sculptures completed in residency at the Camera Obscura Art Lab in Santa Monica, CA, during a period when Covid restrictions were being lifted and the world was adjusting to what most were calling the "new normal".
The series was designed in observation of the Santa Monica pier, taking notice of the changes in the environment and regulations implemented to allow a previously popular location to thrive once again.
Taking influence from the motifs, iconography, environmental setting, and human interactions apparent in the area, the sculptures were designed to represent a reawakened energy as the summer progressed; reflecting the post-Covid attitude apparent during that period.
This project was made possible thanks to the support of The Santa Monica Cultural Affairs.
