“Stone once liquid, once fire, ebbed and flowed like raging water beneath the islands from which we build our lives.”- Michael Belmore 

Michael Belmore’s work questions what it means when human time encounters the time and motion of stone. Somewhere Between the Two States of Matter focuses on the moment when human activity transforms a supposedly inanimate object. In the act of choosing to pick up and throw a stone, it becomes a weapon. The choice becomes a standoff between two states of matter.
