Perch (Rabbit Island)

Built over the course of three summers on Rabbit Island, this tree-based installation is located on a remote ridge along the island’s southern interior. All materials were transported by a small fishing boat and carried to the location through dense forest. It was constructed using hand tools from locally sourced woods where available. Rabbit Island artists-in-residence are invited to use the installation as an open air studio and research platform.

Specifications: Locally-sourced cedar timber decking, treated timber, hardware.
Dimensions approximately 8.5ft x 20.5ft x 12ft (2.6m x 6.25m x 3.7m).
