Tolkien Etchings

8′10″ x 2′ x 2′

Though almost nine feet high, these sculptures from my first exhibition at the Pittsburgh Center for the Arts in 2000, were hung from the ceiling on thin mono-filament, and moved with the air currents. The answer to the riddle this presents is that they were carved from single blocks of styrofoam. Eight pieces in all, each depicted a different model, and were presented in a room painted a deep blue. The installation was titled, “Anti-caryatidean”, (a word I made up), and dealt with the issue of women breaking free from support roles in many male controlled societies, past and present.
Five of these pieces are still available. To purchase, or for more information, please see my contact information under To Purchase.
