Mud Circle
2,000 lbs of Maryland clay - 10" x 144" (diameter)
Left to dry over the duration of the exhibition. A shallow cone was carved into the clay by a blade. The clay measured 1" thick in the center and progressed to10" thick on the edge. Over the course of the exhibition, the mass progressively transformed from muck to a dried slab, from the center outward. Vegetation began to grow spontaneously on the window lit side of the slab.
