This piece is about coming apart, aging, breaking down from what has been.
I was drawn to the strength of these remains, the layers of corrosion referring back to another time and manifestation.
The verticals and their no-longer-used brackets instructed this composition.
I later added the energy of the open hoop, which just sits on the vertical, a visual contrast to the upward energy.
While this compact sculpture is medium sized, it is powerful.
This unique creation is very much enhanced by a growing garden setting.
