"Interworld Space" by Eric Hilton, 1999

Summary

Scottish artist Eric Hilton's passion is in the creative process -- the molding, etching, cutting, sandblasting and the polishing of each work. He describes his process like painting -- he gradually builds and rebuilds each piece as he constructs or designs it. He relates that objects like "Interworld Space" are literally "a place to get lost in" much like a maze.
