copper-electroplated screws on canvas

A grid-like arrangement of copper-electroplated screws is affixed to canvas, their metallic surfaces catching light to create subtle variations in tone and texture. Herold transforms industrial hardware into a minimalist composition that blurs the boundary between sculpture and painting. The work reflects his ongoing interest in everyday materials as vehicles for conceptual inquiry, challenging conventional notions of artistic craft and value.
