Etched copper
Series
Multiple discs, one varying sector each
Finishes
Patina, colour, texture, etched insect

A series of copper discs etched with dense concentric patterns, lines, triangles and teeth, ring after ring towards the centre.

In every disc one sector is left out of the pattern and treated on its own: a pink patina, a raw golden surface, a cross-hatched texture, a single etched insect. The wheel stays the same and the missing piece changes, so each disc is read through the one part that breaks it.
