Devil's Toenail
Commissioned work completed in October 2013, focuses on a playfully intertwining of 18th and 19th century myths on the origin of giant mollusks, combined with visual parallels between their calcium carbonate structures and that of protein based (keratin) human toenails. Composed of plaster, paper pulp, styrofoam, rice paper, graphite, brass square tube, brass nails and string.
