During the exhibition, each of the paraffin wax candles, which were cast using old welding gloves, melted down until they could no longer support the copper wire ball. This phenomenon directly references the importance of fabricators in the manufacturing of cast sculptures. Without the labor of these anonymous casters, many important sculptures simply would never exist, and yet we as an audience rarely if ever learn their names.
