Connections is a radial assemblage built from weathered nails, chain, and a central industrial gear, arranged in a burst-like formation that radiates outward from a small square core. The repetition of fasteners—each worn, bent, and rusted—suggests accumulation through time, while the chain introduces dependency and linkage. What emerges is both structural and symbolic: a meditation on how individual parts rely on one another to form a larger, coherent whole.
