Fragile Bodies
2022

In this ongoing series of sculptures, entitled Fragile Bodies, I am testing the limits of height, width and firing process by using a large amount of combustible organic material. The basic element used to build these sculptures is a simple cotton earbud.

The idea behind these sculptures is quite simple. I wanted to change an everyday object so radically that it would no longer be useful as it was and its primary function would be completely lost. This would be a way of transforming everyday objects into works of art, of transforming the disposable into the permanent.
