Geometry was the starting point for this project. Archimedes (the renown mathematician of ancient Greece) devised a geometric configuration that divides a square into 14 pieces. I've borrowed this configuration to use as an armature for this series of work.
The pieces in "Interior Angles" are modular in that they can be hung in any orientation or arrangement.

Antique figure sculpture from central Africa is the source material for this project. I always appreciate an opportunity to see and do observational drawings of these artifacts. Wood artifacts from 19th century central Africa (present day Democratic Republic of the Congo) are particularly compelling in their vitality and expressionism. I regard the pieces in this series as improvisations on these extraordinary artifacts.
