Sierra is a designer and artist working with large-scale modular installation systems assembled through collective action. Her practice treats participation as structural. The process of assembly carries as much significance as the completed form.
Each installation is composed of modular components designed for manual assembly. No specialised skills are required. The work is built through coordination, reciprocity, and shared effort.
The installation does not arrive as a finished object. It comes into being through collective action. Groups assemble the structure in public, institutional, or organisational settings. What is built reflects the site, the conditions, and the people present.
This approach draws from lived experience of communal building—where work is shared, effort circulates, and making is understood as a collective responsibility rather than an individual act.
By providing a clear framework rather than a completed form, large-scale installation becomes possible anywhere. The work does not endure through authorship. It endures through the collective process that brings it into existence.
“A replicable large-scale structure, made different in each place by the people who build it”
