Ring - Copper, Brass, Natural Rubber, Grout

There is a struggle for what is man-made to continue existing in a world ruled by nature. Structures left untouched will fall into disrepair; yielding to the effects of corrosion, erosion, and decay. During this process of reclamation, the artificial and natural coexist in a struggle for dominion; but human creations will all eventually succumb to nature’s absolute power. We care and cultivate our creations to stave off the deteriorating effects of nature’s hand; which relentlessly works to break it down until reclaimed through the passage of time. This process and its effects are what have influenced this body of work.
