Bottles

Bottles is an installation comprised of used bottles retired from a science lab. Flat on one side and curved on the other, they retained a form of a past role in laboratories.
The bottles were transformed from their initial role, to containers of emulsions, concrete and air. They also served as casts for newly created concrete “bottles”.
