I Can't Tell You Why Sculpture and Canvas
Part of the Imagine Collection, this mixed media piece brings together metal sculpture and painting. The sculpture “comes to life” as if stepping out from the canvas. Watch video below.
I Can’t Tell You Why is based on a Fremont Style petroglyph panel (photo #6) found in Capitol Reef National Park in Utah.
Sand, stucco, and acrylic paint are used to create the rock wall look of the canvas. The sculpture is made from salvaged metal, repurposed copper, and beads.
Dimensions…
Canvas: 40 inches wide, 30 inches tall
Sculpture: 26.25 inches tall, 16.5 inches wide
This collection was inspired by a quote from artist and archeologist Carolyn Boyd:
“In Native America, those images, as soon as they are applied to the wall, they are living. They are incarnated. We can’t even imagine what that would be like — to paint an image of something and give it life.”
