The surface bears the visible traces of dremel and file, marks that remain as part of the sculpture’s character rather than being polished away. These incisions catch the light and invite the hand, giving the work a tactile rawness that feels inseparable from its form. The figure carries both presence and immediacy, as though the act of carving is still alive within the stone.Provenance
Collection of John and Joyce Price, Seattle.
