The show "Batsform" had three sculptures, along with black and white pictures of other works.
For this show I put slip (clay in liquid state) on the floor around the pieces. The slip cracks when it dries and creates a rugged outdoor athmosphere.

I like to take pictures of my work at the beach, which is also the source of many of my ideas.
I wanted to bring the feeling of a find on the beach into the gallery setting so I took some black and white photos of my work and showed them with few selected sculptures.This was somewhat similar to what I had tried with Neil Klein's photos in '94 just now my work was closer to nature. This reminded me of tools I saw while growing up.
