New additions to Teschner’s vibrant series on the confrontation between natural phenomenon and architecture. Influenced by the way temperature and weather impact built objects, their boundaries, and surrounding space, the sculptures are constructed of individually painted planes stitched together in anomalous arrangements. Their scale fluctuates from board to building, drawing on both the language of wood joinery and the extensive palette of a lush tropical landscape.

She says “The integration of space and object in these artworks is important. They are tied to one another. I build them together by sewing them together. When the edge of a block moves, the entire composition, and the edge of the artwork—it moves too. Small changes, they change everything. They change together...

In “Transvaaliant” there is the tremendous force of a plank’s fall. Its border is shaken, misaligned. But the errors are a triumph, in the triumphant hue of a solar scar.”
