Jack-in-the-Box is unlike any previous sculptures I have made, though the concept came in the process of designing and constructing Ghost Train.  Both sculptures change as your viewpoint changes.  Jack-in-the-Box combines the form of a jack (the toy) and a twisted cube.  From some angles the jack is clearly visible, from other angles, the box appears to be empty.  It is hard to capture in a still image; more easily understood by walking around it.  I developed the design in a CAD program, had the pieces laser-cut, then wire-brushed and assembled them.
