100 Days Exhibition captures my explorations in metal over the course of 100 days. The show illustrates the linear and hap-hazard process of following creative ideas and how a commitment to a daily creative-flow practice reveals the impact of small actions accumulated over time. It has become a viable practice for maintaining my creativity amidst the realities of working as a professional artist. The epilogue to the show features three sculptures completed after the 100 days. They mark the beginning of a new typology of work that is a departure from design-driven, functional objects into a world of artistic expression and commentary.
