This outdoor sculpture is a study for moving into more abstract body forms.  The more spare a sculpture, the more exaggerated the body needs to be to register the features in our mind.  This figure, a prelude to the Cadence series, is a study in abstraction.  Notice how much more abstract the front and back views are from the side view.  However, it does not move into the Picasso-esque world of disjointed features as seen in some of the cadence series pieces.  The corten, self-weathering steel has fully weathered and will stay looking the way it does, with modest changes in the patina, for decades to come.  This piece does need to be anchored with bolts or long threaded rod into the ground for stability.
