When the Water Left / In the studio

Where the work begins.

A wooden vessel. A surface of water. An impression carried into space.

The impression and its source · Silk beside the marbling bath.

The making of a sculpture

Before the frame
held the silk,
it held water.

The same wooden structure moves through the process: first as a marbling bath, then as part of the finished installation.
