UNTITLED_SCULPTURE.01 embodies the concept of a triptych, evident in the repeated triple rings and chains forming the hanging layers. This tripartite theme is also reflected in the columns, which consist of three welded metal rods.
The sculpture showcases intricate, identical curves that demonstrate the complexity of shaping metal—visible in both the curves of the columns and the rings themselves. Throughout the piece, the repetition of three creates a sense of symmetry, evoking an idea of perfection. However, the visible welds reveal the imperfections of the creation process, lending a raw quality to the overall look

When presented, this piece would function as an interactive installation featuring a delicate balancing act. Ideally, it would be placed in a room where floor vibrations could cause the hanging rings to shake and flatten out on the sides. After the rings have fallen, the audience would engage with the sculpture by restoring its balance.
