Vestige / Cabriole is a non-utilitarian presence, quietly situated within space. A fragment of marble discarded from architectural use carries the trace of a material formed over geological time. Its cold, weighty surface invites touch, recalling the tactile memory of aged architectural elements walls and handrails brought into the intimacy of everyday life.

 

Mechanically cut edges and roughly carved ones, the cabriole as a formal aesthetic and traces shaped by nature between these elements, intention and abandonment coexist.

 

The contrast that emerges across time, memory, and history encourages a decision to continue using what would otherwise be discarded.

 

Vestige / Cabriole remains as a vestige a remnant imbued with meaning.
