Posted by BENSHARP on 6/14/2005
My work embodies a physical manifestation of human association with materials that abide by natural forces of the universe. Kinetic substances, like glass and metal, flow with heat and gravity. I am inspired to control this motion after the material is molded. All things contained in the universe are bound by physical forces of gravity, heat, light, and resonance. I seek a connection between myself and the amalgamation of molten matter.
