How does the work change when you treat the surrounding space as part of the artwork?

Begin with the image, then return to the label, material, scale, duration, and collection context. The work becomes clearer as these clues begin to connect.

Dissolution and rebirth through material shell

The artist places everyday objects such as fruit and toys into an electrolytic copper solution, allowing the originals to dissolve while a copper shell remains. The work stages a passage between cheap and precious, momentary and lasting, surface and interior.
