An assemblage on the floor, Aazaard 2018, is composed of animal bones with mismatched car parts lying together as for effect of a clash. In Durham’s sculptures and assemblages appears a mix of organic and artificial found items (including bones, plastic pieces, car parts and pipes), often re-composed questioning the fragile balance between nature and industry.

(Jimmie Durham)
