DESCRIPTION:
Write of Passage
This sculpture is of a winged figure standing on a notebook. The figure has a soldering holder for a head and arms, blue feather wings, and one prosthetic leg. She holds a small pencil in one mechanical arm and a paint brush in the other. She wears a sleeveless, blue velvet dress with a scoop neck over blue tights. Her left foot has a black Mary Jane shoe while the right leg is a ball point pen tip adorned with beads. She balances on an open, black notebook with lined paper.
Written on the page in black block letters are the words:
Movement across more
than time and paper
My micro mirroring of macrocosm
Lush words pour
My mind’s open spaces
I balance dance
This blank page new
Turning miss step
Shape shift into
My own write of passage…
