    Isabel Mallet studies the biological and technological life cycles of materials. She builds forms and systems that reconfigure given architectures, proposing sculpture as a revelatory experience of space. Her new work for SculptureCenter includes large blocks of stone, a rewired lighting sensor system, and plantings.
