FOUR TOES STAND (2024)

           

My friend who was readying for the New York City Marathon told me the training had expanded limits she’d pre-imposed outside of awareness. This plant stand’s four-directional stretch – only one of those directions visible – is a response to that state of affairs. This piece is also part of the collection "Bad Graces," conceived and designed during a period when I lost the ability to walk. Four varieties available: small 6” anodized (even finish, slightly warmer tone), large 9” anodized, or small 6” hand-wirebrushed (mottled, slightly cooler tone), large 9” wirebrushed. Surface finishing is by hand and will vary. Made to order; allow five weeks.
