Inspired by the leopard slug, a hermaphroditic animal, two twine around each other to form a caduceus shape. They then suspend themselves in mid-air from a long mucous string. The incandescent, blue male organs of each emerge from the tops of their heads and intertwine, creating a glowing orb that slowly morphs into a flower-like form.

Within these forms, materials, and movements that seem almost alien, I create a small landscape to tend to: an island, a shrine to focus on within the handblown glass center. This becomes a ritual of devotion, an esoteric practice of concentration. With it comes the complexities of separating one thing from another to examine a subject. In this case, it involves separating the human practice of care and placing it intentionally in space.

An edition of Egg was filled with a variety of plant life and first installed at the Museum of Modern Art as part of Nocturne of the Limax Maximus in 2010 at MoMA.
