Power Play (Crab Bucket)

This sculptural assemblage turns the humble bucket into a stage for a restless, creeping chorus—crabs spilling outward as if the vessel can no longer contain nature’s insistence on movement and escape. The warm, burnished metal and honeyed wood create a tactile dialogue between industry and shoreline memory, where light catches on sharp legs and curved shells like glints off wet sand. Composed in two shifting viewpoints, the work reads as both specimen and allegory: abundance becomes pressure, containment becomes futility, and the everyday object is quietly transformed into a meditation on survival and collective momentum.
