I started this the other day and due to the holiday, haven't had a ton of time to work on it, though I like where it's heading. It's done on top of "Man Made the Mountain" which, while i liked the effect the design created, did not represent the work that I really do and believe in. This piece is meant to signify the idea of "erosion." Not so much in the geological sense,but the idea that anything, no matter how strong, will eventually change do to the billions of tiny things that affect it over time. from the monuments of ancient times to natural canyons to the buildings of today, even stone will eventually wear down to sand through the passage of time and I believe, the same can be said of ideas, beliefs, and the people which hold onto those.
The piece is meant to represent the slow deterioration of the pillars of beliefs and ideas that we build our lives around, yet fall into disarray as we move through time and change with the world around us. A monument in itself perhaps that will follow the same fate...
There's a lot more work to do here so It;s nothing close to complete...but It's on it's way.
