Deborah Aschheim both sculpts and draws. Her sculpture installations explore the relationship between architecture, biology, and public space. Her ink on vellum drawings details the current conditions of Modern architecture. Looking at such iconic sites as the Capital Records Building in Los Angeles and the Space Needle in Seattle, Aschheim both documents the buildings and occasionally surrounds them with imagined scaffolding. She uses Modern architecture as a means to explore her personal narrative, drawing on the concepts of memory and history. Aschheim also points out that since these buildings are about her same age, they can be seen as her self-portrait.
