THE MOUSE...
"I started by creating a frame, and overall body. I then smashed a mouse with a sledgehammer, forcing its structure into new shapes. The pieces were then arranged and integrated into the frame with resin. From this, I built out with more resins, creating a new whole from shattered fragments. All the while, I allowed the piece to emerge through the creative process. "
