28 in. x 20 in. with a 9 in. long chain with S hook for hanging
ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Bones of Steel. An homage to all the creatures of the French Broad River who survived the turmoil. Hand forged from steel bar stock & rasps; the Brook Trout, Red Eared Slider & Water Snake are artistically wire wrapped into their iconic forms. They are displaced around the waves & an illusory exit- stenciled out of a R.A.D. reclaimed exit sign, & polished with an angle grinder.
