Vomit it! - a Metalsmithing installation work with video projection
This piece is composed of a formed metal face whose open mouth reveals a small praying adult skeleton sitting on its tongue. The face appears to be vomiting up the skeleton. This is nested inside an oval-shaped frosted acrylic bowl and the two pieces are connected by a tube rivet. A looped video is projected onto the piece showing a crucible containing metal that continuously melts and cools.
