Our proposal for the annual Objectspace Plinth Commission reimagines the concept of ground as a dynamic, everchanging
entity, challenging the artificial
rigidity of the plinth. By assembling a new, unfixed ground from found bricks — a taxonomy of fragments from
past constructions — it contrasts the static nature of traditional architectural materials with the constant change and
restless movement of the installation. This new ground condition reflects the natural processes of growth, decay, and
transformation, as these bricks are layered onto the plinth to create a dynamic surface that evolves over the 12-month
period. The change over time emphasises the fluidity of ground and the inevitable return of built structures to a state of
becoming.
