Elements and minerals have different melting points and temperatures at which they become solid, so combining them is tricky. But weaknesses and stress fractures induced by unusual pairings can, in their incompatibility, produce intriguing results.

Undertaking explorations using metals, silicas and salts is originating some surprising transmutations. Disintegration from one form and subsequent re-formation into another is thus proving to be decidedly thought-provoking. Utilising chance initiates exciting and unpredictable outcomes, which definitely encourages my desire to embrace further possibility through continuing experimentation.
