Beds is a collection of bas-relief beds, carved out of balsa wood and accented with wood finish, in different states of quiet dishevelment. The different states of the bed sheets and pillows are taken from actual photographs of my bed taken after waking up in the morning. The quiet collection is inspired by the somber Shoes on the Danube memorial in Budapest, which is quiet yet numerous sculptures of every day objects.
Each bed has four miniature springs on the bottom, reminding one of box spring mattresses. The beds are displayed with five large pillows, made of plastic bags, masking tape and stuffing, arranged haphazardly to become almost like game pieces on the playing board of a plastic-wrapped thick foamy platform.
