     Title: Drop (2025)     
Dimensions: 3m x 1.6m x 1.6m     
 Materials: Sheet metal, water, recycled steel cable
                                                                          Permanent Installation: Alsversjö MaturResarvat, Sweden                                                                       

An interactive (sound) sculpture suspended in mid-air. An oversized, grotesque yet poetic water form—a hybrid work.  

To the side of the drop is a lever. As people turn the lever,
this powers on a shepard’s tone - an audio illusion, continuous 
        rising and falling frequencies that never finally land.                                                                             
  Drop detail, after one year 
Patination over time, the work seems to 
                   blend into the Swedish nature                                                                              
.
