Volcanic rocks, which originate as magma inside the earth, solidify and change shape as they are gradually eroded by the flow of water and sediment in a river, are analogous to the outcomes of trial and error by a company that has engaged with society over the course of its history, and with the process of producing metal foil powder.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/streetartnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022kyotosteam176_c2_3-2_2.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[155999]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-156001\" src=\"https:\/\/streetartnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022kyotosteam176_c2_3-2_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/streetartnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022kyotosteam176_c2_3-2_2.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/streetartnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022kyotosteam176_c2_3-2_2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/streetartnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022kyotosteam176_c2_3-2_2-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/streetartnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022kyotosteam176_c2_3-2_2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/streetartnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022kyotosteam176_c2_3-2_2-800x533.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">The stones of a riverbed, which under natural conditions spread horizontally following the topography of the earth\u2019s surface, are composed vertically by artificial boundaries such as fences or lines of columnar structures. Stones washed into a riverbed are cast with copper foil to show their outer and inner morphology, in a process that reconfigures and restores them to the vast forms from whence they originated, revealing the volumes and amounts of time of their past and future erosion. The simple approach of covering a stone with copper foil and removing the stone to leave its shape implies that stones are only partially reproducible, and there are some things beyond our understanding. Viewers can see the castings from either side, changing positions and encountering boundaries between inside and outside, back and front that are indeterminate by their very nature.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/streetartnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DSC02095.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[155999]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-156004\" src=\"https:\/\/streetartnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DSC02095.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/streetartnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DSC02095.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/streetartnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DSC02095-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/streetartnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DSC02095-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/streetartnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DSC02095-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/streetartnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DSC02095-800x533.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">The copper foil is only 18 microns thick, and is usually rust-proofed before delivery, but here is has been specially provided for this work without any treatment so that rust will accumulate.
