Bureau is pleased to present Bottle and Hole, a solo project by Greg Carideo in the lower level gallery. The exhibition comprises three new sculptures, a custom built pedestal, and a site-specific light installation. Carideo’s practice begins with a reverent attention to his urban environment: wandering, mapping, and cataloging his surroundings. He collects and charts the unnoticed details of design and architecture, along with careworn fragments of discarded objects, which inform the structure and subjects of his sculptures. From his careful designs, he constructs skeletal architectural armatures by hand. Each small construction develops into a kind of unorthodox reliquary, embellished with carefully selected found materials which imbue his sculptures with the gravity of time and memory.
