resin, beads, insect pins
48" x 96"

In this interactive installation, visitors were invited to shift resin elements from one pin to another. The elements alone and in layers created a wide range of shadows and reflections that were integral to the piece. The elements were designed to create a sense of gravity (a feeling of hanging liquid), while at the same time floating in in an open airy formation on the wall. The shapes of the elements created multiple interpretations such as dripping egg yolks, cows udders, purses, bodily fluids, ghosts, etc.
