This piece is titled after a natural geologic formation in nature. A monument to the edge, a transition, and change. The steel base is in reference to the ziggurat forms from Ancient Mesopotamia. Temple structures with stepped sides that were topped with a shrine. The sculpture is formed by ramcasting a wooden form with clay and then drafting the wood form off the artwork. This technique and hard angle finish is used in casting concrete in Brutalist Architecture, lending a constructed and architectonic aesthetic to the sculpture. This piece was fired for twelve days in an anagama style kiln.
