’Constant cycles of change spiral through our lives. Both deterioration and evolution are constants, yet with decay comes growth. My use of found metal in this piece points to the carelessness with which we treat our environment, but also to the awareness with which we may notice treasures around us if we pay attention. Rust grows on old metal, fungi and lichen grow on old wood and all our personal, human growth comes from our experiences. We continually evolve, regardless. Trust the rust.’ - Tanya Fenkell
