For this project we had to work, for the first time, with stone. I chose to work from some corals I have picked up while I was walking on the beach in Brazil. My goal was not to copy them, as they were just a starting point for me. I started experimenting with small pieces of clay, trying to press the corals into them and observing the pattern they created. The final objects were no longer replicating the reference, but they were living as individuals, and they relate to each other in interesting ways.
