Inspired by the shape of petals, Kye sought to interpret their beauty and emotive qualities, such as resilience and endurance, by manipulating very thin steel wire. The manipulation of the physical and visual characteristics of fine steel wire enables her to explore various delicate structures interplaying between positive and negative spaces while creating volume, textures, space, colour, light, and shadow in this form. The gold plating was employed to express the beauty and preciousness of nature.
