More than random

“Random Order” (acrylic paint on aluminum), by Ed Andrews, in his show “Transplant,’’ at Boston Sculptors Gallery, through Oct. 31.

The gallery says:

“Andrew's battles with leukemia, with the environment, with movement are defined against a traditional dictionary definition and crafted into sculptures of bronze, aluminum and stainless steel. The process is meticulous and intricate — cutting the metal into shapes, and hand painting and etching the material with acid to create his haunting patterns.’’

Mr. Andrews, a native of the Midwest., now lives in the semi-rural town of Glocester, R.I.
