Stainless steel art series #2 - Berry Lamp 1, ca. mid 1990's, photographed March 18, 2001
About fifteen years ago I started playing around bending wire into bird, animal, and human figures and some inanimate figures as well. Back in April I was showing some of them to Kate and with her encouragement we spent a sunny morning photographing them. I've presented a few of those images in a series here and now I'm adding some images of a few pieces I didn't have with me that take my art in some new directions using stainless steel wire and sheet.
Here we're seeing a transition toward larger pieces using wound wire "springs" and stamped metal.

How Do You Know
How do you know when there's enough of anything? What trips the lever that snaps up the STOP sign? What electrical currents fizz and crackle in the brain to shape the decision to quit a place?
