- UNFURLING

It's interesting what you find when you're cataloging your work. This was one of my first created sculptures when I used to have access to a metalworking shop. To be honest, I was never really good at this type of work, and when I had to take a jewelry-making class in school, I was likely the least creative and the most awkward sculptor in the room!
Yet even though this sculpture is missing a piece & some of the cuts are sloppy & the welding is messy (yet strong), I'm posting it because sometimes imperfections make the work of art. (If you've ever collected coins, you know that often the ones that are improperly minted are the most valuable…)
And I've listed this piece as being in Phase I because some areas have a few spots of superficial rust. So at some point I'll post forthcoming images in the restorative process.
