Harvest 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 walking out from the canvas. Watch video below.

Harvest is based on Barrier Canyon Style pictographs (photo #7) found in the San Rafael Swell in Utah.

Sand, stucco, and acrylic paint are used to create the rock wall look of the canvas. The sculpture is made solely from salvaged metal.

Dimensions…

Canvas: 36 inches tall, 24 inches wide

Sculpture: 32 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.”
