Abstract: This supplemental report is based on my thesis exhibition and is an investigation into the influences that drive me to create sculpture. The work stems from a fascination with nature's ability to deconstruct what mankind builds, transforming something new in its place. Through the use of juxtaposed structure, materials and surfaces I explore these relationships. Images of the sculpture and references have been included.
