A sheet of metal warps into a sharp object, appearing as though an icicle or shard of glass. Song’s longstanding interest in the close representation of materials, both in terms of surface texture and reflectivity, here takes on a transformational quality.

Super-element suggests the possibility of materials composed across states of matter, producing, in turn, an impossible object.
