Olive wood (Olea europaea) with aluminum inlay.

14 lbs. 25” × 18” × 3”
Organic Resistance I stages a confrontation between living form and imposed authority. Organic Resistance I rejects the myth that authority is legitimate simply because it appears strong. Systems of control depend not only on coercion, but on compliance. The work proposes that corrupted authority, however rigid its surface, remains dependent on the consent of the living.
