Sheen Shed

2021


From Old English, sceadan, scadan, “to separate, divide”. A shed is supposed to hide and shelter something or someone, and thus to separate it from everything else. Sheen Shed is a translucent shed that does not completely hide whoever enters it nor the images inside, but creates a physical and metaphysical divide between the inside of the expanded painting — the shed, a place of fantastical escapism — and the outside world.
