Thank you for the invitation, there’s only mention of paintings and no sculptures. I only do sculpting.

Thanks, Swallows!
Yes, I thought about leaving the piece “undecorated”, however there was glue residue left on the surface. To cover it up I tried different ideas for decoration, and this came up on top. But I liked the other ones too, so I will make two more with slightly different poses and decoration. But I can’t find black felt, so it has to wait until I do.
The twine is glued to some spots only at the moment.

The loops of your twine are as good as well-modelled folds of cloth and put movement and even sensuality into the figure, which was good even “undecorated”. Was the twine an afterthought or did you imagine using it right from the beginning? And is it glued to the figure so that it can’t move anymore? It looks wrapped so spontaneously. Very nice.

Thanks, your observation is perfect, my aim here was form and balanced asymmetry. I’d like to pair this with two more pieces.

I love it! Both the shape and the string, which I find is arranged in a perfect balance between regularity and “free performence”, this piece of art is alive.

I wouldn’t say I know a lot, but yes, I’m interested in the history and culture of native Indians. The history, the facts are so complicated and confusing. Unfortunately I don’t have enough time to gain in-depth knowledge. I’ll have to look up Tocqueville and Catlin sometime when not too busy.
