Exploration of seamless wall installation to create a suspended surface. After working a lot with contained liquids I wanted to experiment with gravity and viscosity. Different ingredient combinations, led to a desired consistency that would move with gravity at the desired rate. This piece speaks through its vulnerability, movement, and curiosity it gives the audience through the attractive texture. After letting the substance stand for a few days, it turned into a completely different material making me eager to explore further into destruction and aging.
