“Malleable” is a representation of being able to move under the confines of a structured environment and not be broken into conformity. The fluidity of the gel on top of the glass-yet still within the frame, gives the illusion of moving waves beneath the frame flowing free even under pressure. It is still within its confines, but with indifference to the structure that says stay behind the glass.

My piece “Hidden” was created to explore the relationship between both light and dark, how different materials can be perceived under different circumstances and how that changes them. Under overhead lighting the Mylar material seems to glow a yellow green hue, but when you hold up a direct light source like a phone flashlight-you are able to see the deep colors hidden beneath. Inside lies more of a pink/purple/blue undertone waiting to be found. Hidden in the monotonous white, textured landscape hidden gems lie waiting to be found. It just takes a certain light for the right colors to shine.
