I saw Daniel Curtis' show Factory Factory this summer in London. It featured his usual raw material constructions, assembled with a level of care that redirects the possible conclusion that they're just junk. Some of the work has an industrial edge (see the piece made from huge sheets of sandpaper, centre) which I assume references the venue's previous existence as a factory. Other pieces (see top) seem ordered like a city or organism. The piece which seems to have involved the most process, in terms of actually fixing different materials together, is a large plastic sheet on a timber frame (bottom). This hint of potential function (it could be a shelter, a wall or a wing) has an element of excitement to it.
