Torpor

military bed sheets: cotton treated with tea, salt, wine, vinegar, rust, beeswax
dimensions variable, reconfigured each time installed

Exhibition views: Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Querétaro, Mexico, 2022

Early 20th century military bed sheets found in a Canadian Army depot stockpile; the same sheets that would have been slept on by Corbin coal miners; and treated over one summer with some of the household supplies provided to families by the mining company. The steel used in the rusting process also included the original blades forged by Jason de Haan and Warren McLachlan.
