Private Collection, Southeast Michigan
Elemental is a contemporary stainless steel sculpture that features cut-out panels with motifs representing air, water, earth, fire, and energy. Each panel channels a specific element, abstracted into flowing lines and geometric shapes that come alive through light and shadow, shifting subtly with the movement of the sun and air.
Rising from a tapered hexagonal base, the sculpture’s vertical form culminates in a floating dodecahedron, a shape long associated with the cosmos and the mysterious fifth element; ether. The polished surface and open design invite a dynamic interaction with natural light, reinforcing the connection between the elements and their ever-changing environments. Now part of a private collection in Southeast Michigan, Elemental continues to resonate with its surroundings—grounded, yet attuned to the invisible forces that move through it.
