Self-Installing Mechanism, 2005.  Mixed media.  36” x 25” x 12”.

Piece climbs wall to install itself.  It drills and retracts its own anchors as it makes its way up the wall, leaving behind evidence of its role in its own installation.  The height of the installation is determined by the length of the piece’s electrical cord.  At a certain distance the piece unplugs itself.
