Equipotential Bonding is a plumbing term used where contact with an exposed system as the possibility of an electric shock, if left unearthed. Equipotential Bonding as an installation is an attempt to create an immersive environment using fragments. The fragments are made up of found and reconstructed objects that act as signifiers of past systems. System is defined as; an assemblage of things forming a scheme; method. The systems referred to look at transferral, such as; drainage, disposal, oxygenation, the bonding of matter i.e. bonding a super saturated saccrine solution to form a crystalline structure.
The parts exist outside of the original system, as a breakdown, an endocrine disrupts where reaction displaces. The spatial negotiation of these fragments sets up a kind of experiment seated within oppositions. Equipotential Bonding works with process as method to create an underlying tension between the desire for order, and the need to understand the whole.
