Vita / Lebenslauf:
Hosie's constructions form a body of work he began developing in the 1980's, informed by construction sites and abandoned buildings and piers in New York City, as well as the processes of nature in river beds deep forests of Western Massachusetts. Hosie's small structures, all of similar scale and materials, are a 'family' of interrelating constructs, some with interchangeable parts. Considered collectively, their conceptual relationships come into focus. They are made of humble materials - cardboard, wood, Styrofoam, plaster, and glue - and they appear variously musical, architectural, utilitarian and toy-like.
