Hemisphere #2, 1997
Hayley Smith Todd Hoyer | Bisbee, Arizona
English sycamore, paint 3.25 x 5.5 x 5.5 inches | 8.25 x 14 x 14 cm

The form is a bowl. Is it still a bowl if it is cut through? The cut prevents it from being a container. Yet the form has content. Hemisphere #2 is part of our first collaborative body of work, made after the inaugural International Turning Exchange where we first explored working together.

The body of work which this belongs to, was made in Arizona between 1996 and 1998. It combined what were our individual signature forms at the time, the sphere and in this case the hemisphere.

The English sycamore form, was roughed out in Wales and then dried, really dried in Arizona!
H2 as we like to call it, was part of an exhibition of these collaborative works at the Joanne Rapp Gallery in Scottsdale, Arizona, in 1998.
