Homage to the Cube, 1988/1999 Casting the Cube, 2010 Oxyacetylene welding is a process that uses fuel gases and oxygen to weld and cut metals. In oxyacetylene cutting, a cutting torch is used to heat metal to kindling temperature. A stream of oxygen is then trained on the metal, which burns and then flows out of the cut as an oxide slag. In this case the feed-lines are being cut from the interior of the sculpture's central tower. |
