"Iced"
Steel 
 1' x 3' x .5"

This piece was about exploring and becoming more comfortable with the process of welding steel for me. I wanted to give myself a challenge by taking on a project that forced me to become resourceful with my welding techniques. My asthetic is very clean and geometric, so by cutting all of these small pieces of steel, I was able to play around with the layout of my design a lot before I decided on how I wanted my pieces to interact with each other. I went with a shape that mimicked a snowflake, because I thought the harsh lines of the steel complemented each other the best in a circular pattern.
