Wire sizes vary in length
and thickness
This piece is an abstract
representation of how thoughts advance throughout life. The black
thick wire takes a heavier role of thoughts toward the top as the
wooden base with thinner wire is a more mild representation. The
viewers eye moves from the more opened, larger base containing less
wire toward the top becoming more scattered and sometimes overwhelmed
with thoughts. This becomes the journey of aging in life and thoughts
becoming more and more simultaneous, heavy, and important. The five
sided wooden shape also takes on the idea of thoughts as the stair
like structures extend spiraling inward becoming a new conversation
of their own as the wires speak with them as well. The slight opening
in the front gives the spectator a chance to come into the piece and
experience their own thoughts from within.
