Artist Statement:

The three sculptures visually communicate fragility, balance, and transformation through their delicate structures and contrasting materials. While exploring the materials to build the sculptures, I wanted to focus on transparency and tension because they create a sense of instability and movement. I decided to include materials like thin wood, translucent plastic, and geometric forms. I felt the work was not producing the results I wanted in terms of cohesion, so I adjusted the scale and spacing to better unify the pieces. I want to keep exploring the relationship between organic and geometric forms. I want to learn more about how material choices affect perception and structural integrity. This piece allowed me to explore the balance between fragility and stability. The making of this work exposed new ideas, such as using negative space as an active element in the composition.
