Lack thereof (2016)

For this project we had to use one standard 2x4 (no more, no less) to create a sculpture that relates to the 2x4 in some way. 
I started off by cutting my 2x4 up into roughly 250 wooden dowels and sanding them down to create interesting, branch like shapes. 
I then started to create my structure by gluing and securing the dowels in a haphazard pattern around another 2x4. 
I slowly created a structure that was 8 feet long (standard 2x4 length) before removing the internal 2x4. 
For the finished product, I presented the piece hanging from the ceiling. 
Inside of the piece, the negative space of a 2x4 was created.

Lack thereof (2016)

One entire standard 2x4 was used to create a sculpture that demonstrates the negative space of the 2x4 it was created from.
