I have gilded the thresholds to both the front and back doors to my home as well as the threshold to the backyard gate. This gilding demarcates a sacred private space, the space of a private dwelling. Over the course of the show the gilding will wear down as many feet traverse these thresholds. The wearing down of the gilding will be a physical record of the transition from a private dwelling to a more public place. It will also suggest the transition of consciousness making our home into an art space embodies.
