cubes and lines
‘Sculpting in space’ using a ‘contained palette’ of materials.

Assembling and disassembling a variety of different and unexpected configurations. Held only by neodymium magnets. These works exemplify tension at work, transfixed in unpredictable predicaments. Structures and surfaces work as shapes, lines and canvas, while patterns and textures formed by the elements as nature’s artistic expressions. Photographs were the surviving documents to mark their transient existence.
