Thematic/contextual information
This piece was carved as an exploration into the Fibonacci sequence and the waves in the sea. The procedure of carving involves my whole self and all my senses; thought, vision and physicality of course, but more than that are touch and sound. For me, to sculpt a natural curve in stone requires touching that contour, just looking is not enough.
