early work sculpture: unfurled
This is one of the last pieces we're releasing from Brian's mother's collection. It's one of the very first StoryPeople sculptures he did as a gift for her. Anyone who met her knows exactly why the story is about her laughter...
As he says: Outside my studio in Berkeley, California, there was a redwood fence that was falling apart. The first sculptures I made were boards from that fence. This is one of those...
(As you can see, redwood takes paint differently than the reclaimed barnwood from Iowa. It soaks into the wood, so all of the colors feel softer, with a quality of being somewhat out-of-time.)
