- Worth noticing
- The “Exercise in Restraint” dials draw from four-by-seven-foot paintings made with materials including encaustic wax, charcoal, screws and shaved wool rug.
Field notes
The maker describes a six-operation process, from rolling inherited sheet and scrap to dial gauge through firing, cutting and finishing. My Father's Silver focuses on the metal itself, while Exercise in Restraint adapts images from a civil-rights painting series; its listed case options are 36 or 38 mm steel. The site says the paintings have appeared at Gallery 72 in downtown Atlanta.
