In “Wet Wings and Wooden Sails” Katerina Marcelja presents a series of sculptures made with the discarded material from an abandoned house. They are visions of adventure, fantasy and folly that materialized as the house was deconstructed for remodeling. The work reflects the imagery that was revealed as the static state of domestic order gave way to the growing and mutating chaos of mounds of tubes, wires and wooden lattice.

The work is suspended between the weight and familiarity of the domestic realm recognizably inprinted in the material and the suggestion of a disjointed odyssey. The use of common objects with an epic undertone results in some unlikely juxtapositions; at times startling, humorous and poetic.
