Borrowed Form #9


Borrowed Forms takes on loan shapes of the natural world and translates them into domestic objects. Rocks, charred wood, and forest debris from the Pacific Northwest are selected for form and texture, and their impressions are captured in poured jewelers wax. The wax leaves no trace behind as it peels away—an impactless intervention, as if nothing ever occurred. Each resulting cast bronze vessel is unique, a direct portal to the form it is drawn from.
