Overflow

Overflow (cast #177) was cast using molten aluminum on a colony of red invasive fire ants August 2, 2026, in Enterprise, Alabama, and finished August 17, 2026. Its name is inspired by its appearance. As the pouring of the mound stopped, some of the aluminum overflowed and created a platform beside the mound. Paulo Coelho de Souza, a Brazilian novelist and lyricist, wrote, “Be like the fountain that overflows, not like the cistern that merely contains.” Overflow's oval wood base measures 11” x 8.5”. The cast, minus the overflow, is 6.5” wide. The cast and base weigh 2.27 pounds and together stand 6.75” tall. Alabama Ant Art - Natural beauty from the ground up.
