Since 2004 I have started to weld the lead together. Before this I only used lead as single sheets. The use of welding has given me a new direction with my use of lead as it enables me to wrap objects that are truly three-dimensional. I have begun a series of works using sections of tree as a starting pont. My aim with these sculptures is to bring the natural and the man made closer together to a point where it is not clear whether what you are looking at is a man made object or a natural one. The section of tree is carefully selected and where the cuts are made is an essential part of the work.
