About
Metal is considered as minerals or inorganic matter, is one of the elements of the Earth. Once I completely melt those metals, I reconstruct a new form to capture the moment of the changing element of the earth, which had no shape at the beginning. The sea changes into atmosphere and the body returns to soil, transformation on the Earth happens to everything in any shapes. I attempt representing the unbroken chains of those phenomena which has the potential life form.
