WINGED SCULPTURE
Anthropomorphic sculptures made in 2018-2019. After making a bunch of garden dragonflies I put dragonfly and butterfly wings on androgynous human figures. Continued to learn a lot about a various materials and products. Also where I developed many of the skills and processes used in the abstract sculptures I make now.
There were two generations of these: 1st Gen sculptures were steel and fused glass. Free standing or wall hanging; the former were typically mounted in granite rocks. I spent much time with many kinds of paints and patinas.
For the 2nd Gen sculptures, I started to include Wedi board to give depth to the wall sculptures. They are obvious – they stick out from the wall. This was my transition point to abstract wall sculptures.
