Situated within a cultivated city garden, Aft’s inverted sides are simultaneously viewable. A thin layer of bronze separates the excavated spaces that present machined topologies. Employing digital techniques in combination with traditional casting methods, the work reflects on both organic and engineered alternations to the site. Sayal-Bennett is interested in how the language of the digital persists within our contemporary built environment. By translating a digital form into bronze, she explores the slippages, incompatibilities, and resistances that occur when rendering virtual drawings in physical form.
