About the artwork.
Using steel, steel wire, and mixed materials, Christine Clark investigates abstract, conceptual ideas through laborious and repetitive processes. For her installation piece 22 Gauge, she was interested in creating a body of matter that forms a whole, yet has no definable shape other than the room it is situated in. The hanging wire objects are ambiguous forms that began as abstract shapes pared down to their simplest states.
