I was heavily influenced by post minimalism, arte povera, and mono ha at the time.
This was one of a series of pieces where i was exploring the emotional/expressive qualities of raw materials, in this instance standard steel sheets. I wanted to utilize the materials inherent physical qualities and physical forces such gravity and friction to create gestures that were guided or made in collaboration with the material rather than entirely decided/prescribed by me.
I was also experimenting scale, perspective, and light.
First, what is the idea behind this project ?
