*Gamma Secretase is a multi-protein complex which is integrated into the cell membrane. The complex cleaves other proteins which pass through the cell membrane, such as the Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) which gives rise to Amyloid Beta, the major component of amyloid plaques found in the brain of dementia patients. In this sculpture the "membrane" is represented by a sectional cast of a Nissan Sentra car bumper. This is a membrane that I can understand and visualize better than a microscopic cell membrane inside the brain. When the plastic membrane of a car bumper is broken or "cleaved" it sets in motion a cascade of insurance and financial stressors that - for me - stand in as a metaphor for the compounding accumulation of amyloid plaques in the brain which eventually lead to someone losing their mind.
