Ecosystem
brass, dirt, rock, seawater and charcoal
2019




Ecosystem, holds raw elements from nature on brass platforms in an assemblage of dependant structural and convergent brass lines. The form explores the idea of material and immaterial connection within nature, as well as the fragility and weight of its supporting network.

The rhythmic movement and exchange between the linear brass and organic substance relate to our individual connection to nature and our place within it. Natural materials are borrowed from the land (Gadigal/Sydney) and presented in partnership with a refined metal, giving significance to their meaning and worth as well as accentuating a contrast between what we consider to be precious and how we measure value.
