About the Piece

This work composed of chicken wire hexagons and copper mesh is held together by hundreds of small magnets. Each magnet holds a component to the canvas surface. From a distance an image forms of a sphere-like subject, held together by the magnetism between magnet and metal. With these works, I explore the idea of where a drawing can happen. I envision the space between the magnet and the chicken-wire piece to be the place where the drawing happens.

I envision these as freestanding, allowing the viewer to walk around the work and see the magnetic elements inherent in the work.

Material: chicken wire, bronze mesh, magnets, canvas

Dimensions: 6' x 7' x 2"
