Fragile / Mill Valley 2020

The felt ball sitting on the edge of the branch with only minimal contact. The branch only held by the pressure generated through it’s own weight kept in position by the rope. As the natural materials are reacting to the environment the chance of reaching the tipping point, getting off balance ever present. The stem and base solid, strong stable, the opposite. Fragile, a certain risk remaining, control limited but possible with care, attention.
