Steel Bloom
The Before
The gears came off something mechanical. Something that had a job, ran until it didn't, and got pulled. The leaves are offcuts from flat stock, the kind that pile up on the shop floor between cuts and don't usually go anywhere except a scrap bin.
That's all this metal was.
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.
