Dragon
The Making
Built scale by scale out of chain and cut plate. There's a long stretch in the middle where it's just a pile of metal and faith — and then one day the head turns the right way and it's looking back at you.
The Words
People ask why a dragon. Honestly? The scrap told me. A truck spring wants to be a spine; chain wants to be a mane. I just listen and weld.
The Before
Chain off a boat yard. Plate from a torn-down shed. A handful of gears that used to run something. None of it was headed anywhere good.
Visit
The gallery sits in a working industrial park — a warm room in the middle of the grinders and the sparks. It's an honest place to meet a piece of art. Come by when it's quiet. Bring somebody. Touch the metal. See if it's saying anything to you. Visits are by appointment. Reach out and Nikki will set a time.
