Ted Lott

From the Artist:

Architecture is the environment inside which we spend our lives; it inhabits the landscapes we travel through. Like architecture, furniture is designed around the space of the body; the difference is one of scale.

Working at the intersection between the space of the body and that of architecture I seek to enliven our awareness of the spaces where we live and re-examine the objects we associate with.

Objects can tell us a story about those who made and used them. Adopting these stories, each piece gives that history a literal and proverbial home.

In this work, every intervention draws a measure of its design from the object itself; referencing vernacular architecture, model making, sheds, tree houses, bridges and other structures. Separating themselves from the world of functional buildings through change of scale and context the works reveal and celebrate the logic of stick-frame construction.

Totally Lost, Places Linked to Totalitarian Regimes in Europe

Totally Lost is a is an open and evolving project: a photographic and video research throughout Europe to discover, survey and map the abandoned architectural heritage of the Totalitarian Regimes of the 20th century in Europe.

There are many buildings of great historical value which lie neglected all over Europe: institutional buildings, dwellings, monuments, bunkers, schools, etc. These places, once the ideologies that produced them disappeared, become the starting point of a visual research between architecture and memory, that investigates their relationship with the contemporary world.

Through the lenses of photographers, video makers and urban explorers Totally Lost aims at showing how these places represent fragments to be reconnected in a network of new meanings to give, new contents to generate and new potential to value. The path and the participation become very sense of the project and forces us not to close definitively with the past, but to understand how bring these places into the future.

Photographs and videos are like a filter, that lets us question ourselves about things still burdened by memory.

Painted turtle babies!!!!

We dug them up and put them by the pond so they’d have a better chance of living. 7 were already hatched and 3 were still in their eggs. We reburied the unhatched ones in the sand near the pond so they’d have an easier time digging out and getting to the water
