8’ Tall, 3’ Diameter
Developed as a mobile, deployable place-marking structure, this structure uses three unstable elements (wood posts, tarp container, and local soil) to produce a lightweight, mobile system that can be set up virtually anywhere. Gravity Structure 01 is placed in the wilderness outside of Tombstone, Arizona. Gravity Structure 02 is placed near the Buffalo Bayou in Houston, Texas. Gravity Structure 03 is installed in a forest outside of Tallahassee, Florida.
