ahoy! from above or below







This is my last piece from undergrad sculpture with liz king. It's mostly wood, steel, pink foam, and hydrostone and the structure as a whole was quite a feat for me to accomplish in our small studio spaces. The larger structure which is akin to a lifeguard stand is embedded with a kidney bean pool shaped swath similar to either an iceberg, or poured cement, and renders the chair without function. The somewhat humorously short diving board, besides being converse in size, is functional as the artist is asked to bounce unremittingly making the anonymous cube wiggle and hop. Although I wish not to delve too deep, I find both of these an exercise in idle contemplation.
