The Basket Gun is an exploration of a vessel turned on its head. A gun is a vessel containing a bullet. Rather than enacting associations of holding and giving as a basket does, the gift of a bullet is an act of taking away (life.) By merging them, I am questioning portrayals of killing as a means of achieving the greater good.
