This collection of wire sculptures was made with movement in mind. It takes the work of Alexander Calder and Edward Muybridge as inspiration, trying to create a synthesis of the playfulness of the one with the other’s analysis of form in motion. It looks at the capacity of line, the most basic element in an artist's arsenal, to define form and suggest its dynamic potential.
