Casted Shadow

Bronze

With its appearance between mineral and earthenware, Casted Shadow explores the intersection of medium and process at the object scale.

Casted Shadow’s familiar, yet otherworldly shape and irregular contours reminiscent of molten rock found in craters and caves calls attention to the preservation and destruction inherent in the sculptural process. Through negative hand-carving and traditional direct casting, the original material used to form it are stripped away and vanish, leaving behind only a material shadow of the original. As such, Casted Shadow subverts the idea of a sculpture already complete within the material waiting to be discovered and invites contemplation of its process.
