Two blocks of .9 lb EPS 24” x 48” x 96” were used to create this unique experimental sculpture. In the artist’s own words + ” With the foam in particular, we are developing a process where we take high pressure water sprayers and literally erode the foam into mountainous/cavernous structures. Due to the permeability of the foam, the result is a kind of glowing otherworldly, but familiar art-piece. The two pieces we ordered represent our first expedition into this experiment through a participatory design process with undergraduate students. We eroded them as part of a festival we called “Foam Fest” in partnership with Judson University. Eventually the two pieces of foam will act as the central art piece and organizational element of a tiny house that we will finish building this year.”
