Straw Men

Bridge
15’ span, mixed media with straw.

The sculpture Bridge couples themes of caryatids and effigies. As caryatids the two figures structurally support one another through the metaphor of bridged embrace. As ‘Folk’ effigies they are made with what’s at hand, a bricolage of straw, found objects and clothes.
