Batik Orifice

Using a fragile intertwined piece of wood and a silk batik print I wanted to create a link between the organic and manufactured but also reference an anatomical structure. The found plastic used is also hints at the tension between natural and synthetic materials. Medium: Sculpture Materials: Found natural wood, plastic, textiles Dimensions: W40cm x H70cm x D35cm (irregular)
