Steel Pieces and String
This piece was inspired by the movement of my friends and their hula hoops. The steel alone wasnt taking up enough space and looked like a weird coathanger so thus the string was added to build up a "body" so to say. An architectural feel developed down the bottom, making it feel more stable. The bike tire represents the spinning hula hoop around the persons neck. I added the fabric to pick up wind so the tire would spin, but unfortunately it feels and looks too heavy so it was a mistake.
