Inspiration
(thoughts of the maker)
Juxtapose, reveal contrast, reveal logical pattern and permanence.
Random and controlled pattern - like veins in rock. The single orb reflects and reveals - always changing - like a walk through the Chapel. The swinging sensor.
Making tubing - drawing down, heating, drawing down - refining form in a rhythmic, ancient way.
Tapping, fitting, measuring, filing.
Peridot - fresh spring grass - renewal.
Carefully drilling into the orb. Preparation to secure a tiny moon.
