The Sea and the Sky







 The Sea and the Sky is a body of work which deals with themes of metamorphosis, deterioration and regeneration. Comprised of found objects and recycled materials, each of the pieces has the capability of movement - turning a crank can result in the movement of a ship travelling through rough seas, the rise and subsequent crash of a wave or the flapping of wings. The constant repetition of movement in each individual piece suggests the difficulty of surpassing a particular stage. For the spectator, meaning can be interpreted in many different ways – through the familiarity, condition and appearance of the materials, as well as through the movements generated by the action.
