Time flies when you’re spot welding.

Spot welding workshop (2/5). Creating a box constructed from squares of spot welded steel and other materials. I have chosen time as a theme, if you can’t tell this is an hourglass shape. I felt that time was an appropriate topic from recent research containing art movements such as Dada, Pop Art and assemblage. They all have similarities between the works and there are times when the distinction between the movements become blurred.
I have big plans for this hourglass, pockets of air between two sheets of laminated tissue paper in which salt can be moved to represent the passage of time.
