The shelves and scripture reflect the classificatory and rationalist nature of modernity, and the violent artistic capture of the dead as an object of history, organised and vulgarly sublimated into the sculpture, replacing them. What is our obligation to history?

Lead is the unredeemed, base metal. Lead scraps tumble from the shelves here, their promise as the catalyst of alchemy forsaken, repurposed as a crude shield from radiation. The huge shelves carry the unrealised dreams of the dead, tumbling out. What is our obligation to them?

It appears as wreckage stacked high and piling higher still; blown by the storm called progress, unable to be redeemed or restored. The shelves carry a record of the victims of history as a single catastrophe, wrecked concrete pages inscribed with the theology of advancement.

It is also a picture of Lurianic creation, a sculpture of a world not fallen from grace but of withdrawn divinity. In an atomic metaphor, shards tumble from the monument like the broken vessels under the return of God’s light.

The Atomic War occurred in 1950 and killed half a million people in what we know as Oslola. The huge sculpture is littered with radioactive glass, and its decaying and broken shelves recall the scorched walls and endless ruins of the bomb sites.

“The Catastrophe” is a sculpture in northern Oslola (Iceland). It is a monument to the Atomic War; a picture of creation; a rejection of teleology; a claim of the dead; and a reflection on the sublimation of history. It is made of concrete, lead, iron rebar and glass.

It's also very exciting, it's a transport problem that is basically unique. Increasingly I'm considering how logistics, defence, manufacturing and education can be put on a boat and moved around.

Many Commonwealth islands don't have airports (browse the Lesser Antilles on Google Earth to see why that's a good thing) so I think short seaplanes like this would be a common part of a hub-and-spoke travel system. Connecting dozens of Atlantic/Caribbean islands is very hard
