The nest is a highly constructed object, as artificial and considered as any work of art although it comes from nature. I was interested in making art about art - art about the process of making something, with the wires and paper tying in a more familiar and human artistic process to the creation of the nest. It was a little more personal, like looking into the mind of how someone like me would think about objects in terms of their creation, and showing that creative progression by beginning wit the wire armeture.
As an aside, it was interesting working three-dimensionally again since I haven't touched that since freshman fall. It didn't convince me that I should do more 3-D work, but it was nice stepping outside of the safety of drawing, and knowing that I can branch out materially if the concept requires it.
