with no splits or breaks

just another beautiful sculptural thing for the shelf

the drawing unpacks as a wonderful portrait of impotence and thwarted desire

SOLD Trio of Scrap Metal and Wire Folk Art Rocking Chairs ink spatter painting with no splits or breaksA pretty fabulous trio of rockers looking rather Calder esque to me, and seeming poised to accommodate a family of miniature humans: small, medium, and large. Soldered together of scraps of sheet metal and bent wire, with a definite attentiveness to modernist aesthetics. I especially love the bent wire back of the mid size rocker, looking like a paper clip labyrinth. Like three dimensional line drawings. Largest: 4 1 2" t x 3 3 4" d. Mid: 3 5 8" t.
