3d drawing inspired by whelk egg sacs found on the seashore in Dorset. The drawing takes line from 2d to 3d, ‘situated between image and object’ (Fer, 2004)

Drawing over drawing with wire, some marks recede, others recovered, ‘expanding into and out of form’ (Luzar). It relates to an essence of becoming, emergence, beginnings of life, embodiments, ephemerality, mutability, bodily forms that oscillate, skin over amorphous shapes.

The lighting and placement are important for its positioning. Best suspended in area with light coming through. Hangs by copper wires.
