Cross Section Ellipse is a sculptural wall work created in thrown porcelain, medical grade silicone rubber, and silk thread. Inspired by biological cross sections revealed under a microscope, Cross Section Ellipse expands to a superimposed scale of twenty-six feet wide. This piece is activated by light, as the silicone rubber is translucent and diffuses color, light, and shadow. The combination of thrown porcelain with this highly engineered material intended to manufacture medical tubes and human prosthetics makes this sculpture enveloping and mysterious, yet playful. Cross Section Ellipse’s extraordinary scale and synthesis of materials proposes a duality between the organic and technological, as informed by biomechanics, the technology of life, and the mechanical world of nature.
