Duchamp’s complex approach to drawing out subtle threads between color, form, texture and implied depth is inherently influenced by frescos, ornamentation, architecture and her grandmother’s weaving practice. She will often begin with a cultural narrative or folklore, then sculpt an idea to response to that story (such as the Golden Rock, a reference to the Burmese golden rock of Kyaiktiyo, Myanmar). The stability of the triangle allows her to build slowly and explore complex forms that are responsive to the hand-building process. Duchamp works in porcelain, because of its’ haptic similarities to paper. Porcelain’s translucency and responsivity easily translate her aesthetic tendencies into a more archival iteration of visual and sensual exploration. She says, “I hope the viewer will experience new sensations through the colors and the surfaces, wanting to convey the touch and a form of beauty.” Rachael Marne. This sculpture golden rock gate refers to the passage we go through in life and its challenge to overcome it slowly, each triangle being magnified and acts as a healing.
