Wooden pallets are rough and ready pragmatic structures, that when no longer in use become everyday detritus that can be found piled up in any city. They serve as cheap plinths enabling a vast variety of consumer goods to be shunted easily from place to place before being sold. Charles Mason has a predilection for these commonplace overlooked objects that bear weight and are constantly relocated before being thrown away.
