Mechanism for Twisting Wire removes the materials from their utilitarian contexts, challenging notions of functionality and questioning the interplay between art and utility. Inspired by the absurdism of the Dadaists, central to the essence of these sculptures is the realization that they possess no inherent function without human enablement. By removing the materials from their utilitarian contexts, I challenge conventional notions of functionality and invite us to question the interplay between art and utility.
