Through cycles of moving and resting together, a physical collaboration develops in which a disabled body and metal support enable each other's movement; bending, heating, cooling, resting, and imprinting on one another over time. Through this process, sculptural forms gradually emerge, holding on their surface marks of the physical exchange which has occurred.

Drawing parallels between the material properties of the sheet metal and the artist’s body which experiences chronic pain, Forged explores themes of dependency, intimacy, support and corrosion, as metal and body attempt to find a shared movement language in a delicate and precarious dance of give and take.
