Encasement (Double Ring) presents two concentric loops of jute rope sealed within a continuous rubber skin. The work stages a quiet contradiction between softness and control: a pliant, fibrous core immobilized by an industrial exterior. The circles do not touch, yet their proximity establishes a taut relational field, a geometry held together by distance rather than contact.
The use of rubber functions less as surface than as condition. It arrests fraying, suspends entropy, and fixes the rope in a state of permanent readiness. What would normally flex, knot, or yield is instead compelled into perfect recurrence. The circles read simultaneously as units and as a system, neither progressing nor collapsing, but maintaining equilibrium through repetition.
Installed flat against the wall, the work resists illusionism and depth, offering instead a measured insistence on containment. The piece does not propose movement, narrative, or resolution. It holds.
