I had cut off the top edges of a fence, planning to join these strips at the base.
However, I stopped welding before that was completed. When I closed "my shop", I collected the parts: frames, base & cymbal & took them to my studio, hoping to join them with nuts & bolts.
This was so inadequate! 6 mos. later, my dear friend Rick Butler welded the frame to the base for me & secured the cymbal.
I am delighted to have this sculpture come together.
It has become a work that is symbolic of this transition in my process. |
