Larkin Building Drawing, 2006

Full Title:

Larkin Building Drawing: one plane of yellow stripes drawn in perspective as viewed from the west end of the arcade (or, how will we see the surface?)

Yellow hand-cut vinyl on glass

Public installation at Gerald Larkin Building, Trinity College, University of Toronto, Canada

Larkin Building Drawing was a site-specific drawing installation of yellow vinyl stripes created on the 10 windows of the Gerald Larkin Building arcade at Trinity College. When viewed from the west entrance, the stripes appeared to be aligned perpendicular to the surface of the windows. 

With the plane of yellow stripes, I wanted to create a space on the other side of the window that felt distant yet intimate.
