If the two centerpieces of the exhibition, Pièce détachée, (2010) and Pavillon Interface II, (2010), are not exactly erotic, they nevertheless evoke a rich and ambiguous tension, instinctually seductive and repulsive. The former consists of an eight foot, open cube armature whose innards are like an asymmetrical web. Remove one element (a bar, a magnet) and the whole web collapses.
