Carcera: The Wire City

Carcera is a concept born from many things: urban loneliness (particularly during the Covid-19 lockdowns of 2020), emotional isolation, the lack of affordable housing in my city, as well as inspiration drawn from Brutalist architecture and certain sites in Albania, including BunkArt in Tirana and the prison cells of Gjirokaster castle.

The sculptures are made from old pieces of metal and nylon fabric, and are typically 2-3cm in length and height, and 3-4cm in diameter. I produce sets of 3 to 5 sculptures on commission. Please message me for more details.
