When the heat is removed, these illusions of flexibility are frozen, and on one level, the sculpture becomes a documentation of those forces used in the process. It is my intent that these sculptures communicate a sense of continuance, as if each piece is a single frame taken from a film, appearing to be at rest before moving on.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis method of making art offers a number of creative options for me as a sculptor. The variables of heat intensity, size and shape of the raw material produce a wide range of results; from the quiet simplicity of a single pipe bend to the rhythmic complexity that emerges from folding a section of structural steel. A degree of unpredictability is always present, which tends to tease ones curiosity and lend energy.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.bretprice.com\/index.htm\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003EArtist Website\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":"","uid":"27652","created_gmt":"2013-07-03 14:57:19","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:14:30","author":"Jenna Farmer","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","extras":[],"hg_media":{"222241":{"id":"222241","type":"image","title":"Oh\u0027d 2","body":null,"created":"1449243516","gmt_created":"2015-12-04 15:38:36","changed":"1475894891","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:48:11","alt":"Oh\u0027d 2","file":{"fid":"197306","name":"9250205492_3653780bfc_h.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/9250205492_3653780bfc_h_0.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/www.tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/9250205492_3653780bfc_h_0.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":758553,"path_740":"http:\/\/www.tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/9250205492_3653780bfc_h_0.jpg?itok=3P8iHt7N"}},"222231":{"id":"222231","type":"image","title":"Oh\u0027d 1","body":null,"created":"1449243516","gmt_created":"2015-12-04 15:38:36","changed":"1475894891","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:48:11","alt":"Oh\u0027d 1","file":{"fid":"197305","name":"ohd_bret_price-2.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/ohd_bret_price-2_0.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/www.tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/ohd_bret_price-2_0.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":3130961,"path_740":"http:\/\/www.tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/ohd_bret_price-2_0.jpg?itok=n6SeT_jZ"}}},"media_ids":["222241","222231"],"groups":[{"id":"145331","name":"Georgia Tech Arts"}],"categories":[{"id":"42901","name":"Community"},{"id":"42891","name":"Georgia Tech Arts"},{"id":"42921","name":"Exhibitions"}],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EJenna Farmer \u003Cbr \/\u003EMarketing Specialist \u003Cbr \/\u003EOffice of the Arts at Georgia Tech\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:jenna.farmer@arts.gatech.edu\u0022\u003Ejenna.farmer@arts.gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E(404) 385-4219 \u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":["jenna.farmer@arts.gatech.edu"],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
