Terrestrial Tales
Large granite rocks(nature-made) are counterbalanced with rotating brass rods(man-made) representing a precarious interconnectivity between two terrestrial tales. As an architectural composition, this assemblage imagines a geometric, mathematic, and gravitational harmony, generating a feeling of tension and a delicate sense of balance. Most strikingly, this work intends to highlight the ability of science and technology to confound expectations.
