Multitude of Fish is an installation consisting of 1000 handmade clay fish. In this piece, I touch on layers of meaning through its process and how it’s experienced by the viewer. I explored how things we cannot see like intention, emotions and thoughts, form our reality. This is reflected in the creation process as each mark carved into the clay builds up to the fish and eventually becomes a piece to the overall installation. For a couple of years before I created this piece, I worked with the image of water in my drawings which was preliminary work that led up to this installation. In my work, the fish flows through its surrounding space and leads the viewer on a journey reminiscent of the inner realm.
