“The Wish”

White Pine
Dimensions: 84″ x 27″ x 27″

Artist’s Statement: My sculpture depicts a woman looking up at the sky. A bird sits on her shoulder. Like the woman, he remains behind, while the migratory birds ascend into the sky. The sculpture thematizes my own behavior, my emotions when the birds gather and fly away in autumn – “THE WISH“ to fly away with them.
