Head of a Woman, 2011 Sarah Myers |
She is not the first sculpture I have lost and most likely
not the last... But she was the latest
and the largest.
I could not find an
appropriate method for producing a cast, could not ship her and in the end had
no room to take her with me. I might have
been resigned to receiving her in a somewhat Mitoraj state at the other end of
the adventure. But a sculpture of her
weight, fragility and size (she was life-scale - large life-scale) cannot be
packed in a vehicle which is already a solid Rubik's cube of boxes. So here is a blurry picture of my creation
leaning against the wall of the old studio, this written lament, and my growing
resolution to make something like her in the future.
