Project Description
"Capacity" consists of an eight-foot diameter felt-covered circle, a collection of water-filled boiling flasks, and the elliptical shadows cast by both. This large-scale sculpture draws connections between the elements of nature and the elements of science and mathematics, which have a long-standing love affair with formulas, systems, and solutions.
"Foundation," a work in progress started at Sculpture Space, is a floor-based installation consisting of eight modular, tranparent forms, each a pear-shaped flask joined with a circular disc. The materials, scale, and placement of the work create tensions between absence and presence, form and space, fragility and strength, as well as an extremely private experience with the forms.
This work was made possible by support from Phoenix Equipment, Inc., SUNY IT, the Hamilton College Department of Chemistry, and Sculpture Space board members. Photos: Frank Forte.
