In Morphogenesisform emerges from the union of the industrial and the handmade. The title comes from the biological process that causes an organism to develop its shape - a process where form is emergent rather than given in advance. Witnessing the embryonic development of the fourth industrial revolution we are seeing automation change our future in a way we can’t fully understand from our current vantage point.
If steel stands as a signifier in this relentless industrialization, Menzies’ use undermines this legacy evoking a structural order that is haptic and organic. Tenderly crafting the abrasive steel wool and mesh into sculpture, Menzies creates a more mutable manmade world.
