COPPER  &  STONE PDF Catalogue

The first copper work was the 1993 relief, Passion–-a wall-embedded bar treated with acetic acid. After multiple applications a copper stain ran down the wall. The work was set in a humidity producing bathroom; after twenty years the stain has grown more intense. Outdoors in 1995, in the island atmosphere of Orkney, Scotland, a similar work is a permanent installation on the exterior wall of the Pier Center, one of the warehouses of the original Hudson Bay Company. Left to the elements, years later a bleed is visible running down the wall.
