Concrete Convalescence is a piece highlighting the juxtaposition of two materials and their functions. The chair: fragile and broken, in desperate need of repair. The concrete; rarely used for the reparation of delicate forms, cast around the broken shards. Together they are locked in perfect harmony; one material branching out, aching for an escape, while the other holds tight, solid and heavy. on an accessible and personal scale. We are un-official, unpolished, non-bureaucratic, and off Higgins. The book’s title acknowledges that Higgins is where we emerged and where we were originally from. However, we must stay away from its jurisdiction. 25 feet from Higgins is where students are allowed to smoke. “25 FEET Off Higgins” is where students are allowed to express themselves freely while having proximity to their base. It is a discussion from beyond Higgins; to be brought back into Higgins.
