Notes
"I wanted to capture the contrast between the fluid nature of the metal and how it also stands up on its own, soft but disintegrating into the environment, and how the pressure on the material makes it flow in all those many different directions. It is a study and an experiment in materiality - me observing what the material wants to do, and something that wants to come out of the material and be expressed."
