The New York artist combines countless numbers of cardboard boxes or thousands of pieces of scrap wood to form enormous installations, to which she adds things like living plants and a nurturing system made of earth, tarpaulins, and pipes. Considering her use of rubbish, Washburn’s work is often regarded as a political statement or interpreted as a reflection of our society of excess, but she is far more interested in the design of vital, dynamic structures.\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt\"\u003e\u003cFONT size=2\u003eThis catalogue documents a work commissioned by the Deutsche Guggenheim in Berlin—what the artist calls a “plant factory.” For the first time, the artist will also integrate mechanics into a work, with her use of a conveyor belt.
