Explore the inspiration and process behind this piece.
Gabriel Dishaw's earliest sculptures were floral forms built from discarded technology, and Digital Daisies returns to that origin, completing in April 2017 a sculpture that revisits the series where the practice began. Built from floppy disc parts, hard drives, capacitors, vacuum tubes, gears, and typewriter parts, this piece draws from the full depth of the e-waste vocabulary — analog and digital, mechanical and electronic, the old and the obsolete assembled into something that reads unmistakably as organic.
The flower series is the one corner of the shop with no pop culture, no brand references— just the question of what happens when the language of technology is used to speak about nature.
Materials: Floppy disc parts; hard drives; capacitors; vacuum tubes; gears; typewriter parts; upcycled electronic materials.
Wearable: No — display sculpture.
Dimensions: 19.75"H × 7.75"W × 7.75"D
Edition: Limited Edition 1 of 1 — signed with certificate of authenticity
