Stone reflects a sense of infinity at a time when impermanence is vivid and magnified in our lives.

While working in the studio one night I brushed by a work table that had two pieces of wood on it that I had haphazardly set there to explore balance and movement. That gesture sent the pieces into a subtle and intriguing motion. This led to a collaboration with studio tech, De Marco, to explore sustained motion, balance, and material pliability. The sculpture is set in motion by manual touch and will maintain fluid movement for a period of time. What started as an accidental experiment turned into a fun and lengthy investigation.
