The title of the exhibition alludes to the intensity of the process. Wrack—the stuff washed up on the shore after a storm is the embodiment of the process by which the artist transforms pipe and mesh into works of art. Woven wire disks are layered in space whilst the overall structural curvature dictates the flow of form. There is a journey of transformation at hand— from heavy to light, base metal to something immaterially sublime. Yet the inherent balance and stability of the form is ever-present.
