Embrace

This sculpture consists of three nested cylinders, each made from a panel of woven brass EDM wire. They are coated in flat latex paint, and connected. These pieces do not come apart, and they are open at the bottom. They are not vases.

STATEMENT

I work with wire, but I could be most accurately described as a mesh artist, because I weave sections that can be worked like a soft textile or stiffened for heavier applications. The process I’ve developed is based on the principle of elegant efficiency, and results in something distinctly organic looking. My core methods are built around only a few simple rules laid out by the natural properties and physical limits of the wire, just as a potter works within the limits of the clay.
