The exhibtion explored the tools, ingeunity and dedicatation that each artist takes within their practice, examining the subtleties that their crafts require. Despite each artist using varying materials within each practice, the intersection and thought process of their works alinged in a multitude of ways. As a result the viewers were welcomed to explore the dots that connect each artist and the tools necessary and thought process required to create the work physcially and mentally.
