A process is a combination of raising, marriage of metals, hinge making, and other metalsmithing techniques to bring this form to life. A Process was inspired by a moth cocoon. The outer structure appears to be strong and machine-like, in order to protect its contents. However, the glass on the top is broken, and the organic wax material on the inside is exposed. Here, the viewer is left to finish the story. Did someone/something break in or did someone/something break out. The conclusion is different to for every viewer, which reflects your own, experiences, beliefs, fears, and dreams.
