Ballistics as a science is divided into two different categories. One deals with the behaviour of the projectile/bullet before it exits the guns chamber, the other studies the characteristics of the slugs flight afterwords.
As a result of being exposed to different kinds of materials, on impact the bullet deforms. During my experiences on the shooting range, I always admired these unique objects which constantly have a particular look. Little sculptures of exclusive beauty.
In this work I’m studying the aesthetics of malformed bullets, the results are the end points of various experiments. The outcome of shooting in all sorts of materials like metal, rubber, dirt is exciting and unpredictable.
