Duck Weed Curtain is fabricated from multiple steel leaves that are plasma cut and stamped with a corrugation for strength. These are welded to a piece of mesh that has been distorted and stretched by a bulldozer at the local scrap yard.
The pixelated sculpture becomes clearer at a distance and a circular motif becomes visible from apparent chaos. The veil of green on my garden pond is my initial inspiration. It covers my personal water source; the shallow body of water has come to represent my subconscious. In autumn as nature goes to sleep, so sleep and the unconscious becomes an important interest in my life.
