Thang #381

Glass, copper, patina, time 2020 Like most things in the universe, art is meant to grow with time, both in manifestation and contemplation. Thang #381 was made by blowing glass into a hand-woven copper wire cage, which was then sealed in a container with a salt and vinegar solution for ninety-one days. As the patina grew across the copper, COVID-19 spread across the United States, leaving most people confined in their homes. Thang #381 is a statement of change over time and how environment effects that change.
