Movement in Connection
A wall-hung piece that connects welding techniques with the creative ideas of metal sculpture. The piece is meant to show the connection between two dancers, with the middle piece representing the masculine energy—strong, solid, and steady. The horizontal piece represents the feminine energy—flowing, free, and beautiful. Using sheet metal and steel rods, I want to create a visual dance between the two, capturing the balance and movement of their relationship.
