Wilt!

Wilt! examines how tension is held in the body and how that can be translated into form.

The piece captures movement in the way the artist writhes on the ground. He cannot seem to get away from it, yet finds some sort of peace in its hold. 

He does not come from the ground, but rather is attached to it as a means to ground himself in his sprawling. Though he seems desperate to be removed from it, he is also one with it. The foliage behind him extends his body into the black abyss that surrounds him.
