ABOUT THE ARTWORK

While listening to Little Milton in a blues club in Chicago I closed my eyes and imagined this shape. I drew it on a napkin and kept for years until after I invented the technique of weaving bronze wire. Because it is woven, the sculpture has a bit of movement and the form evokes the feeling of swaying to the music. I invented the technique while working at a bronze foundry and realized that the welding wire was just another fiber and could therefore be woven. The pedestal is stainless steel and can be bolted to the ground.

I was born in Denver Colorado in 1950. I was raised in an elegant mansion and was destined to become a debutant. However, my inclination toward sculpting had already begun in my father’s tool shop and in the Rocky Mountains. After 2 years at a woman’s college in Virginia I traveled to Europe and India. I married Allan in 1974. We raised two daughters who remember the numerous art and craft projects that were the mainstay of playtime and the trips to the art museums in San Francisco.
