Avodah is the result of a series of line drawings, lifted from the page and worked out in space. Constructed of 136 parts, each element was turned on a lathe by hand, working out a pure, simplified construction that reflected the experience of making whilst considering worship as a means of craftsmanship. Guiding the eye up and beckoning the visitor within, this silent structure encouraged an audience to pause before being released back out into the room.
