This is a wound wire (silver-colored wire) sculpture, approximately 8.5" long. Signed with an SG wound into the wire-for Susan Graham. This litte seahorse can be hung on the wall, from the ceiling, and can even be used as a tree ornament.
These wire sculptures are individually handmade, each one treated as a drawing done in three dimensions. The line of the wire is kept continuous for as long as possible within one sculpture to give both openness and stability to the form. Special attention is paid to pattern, gesture, and how the character and the specific qualities of each creature are best expressed.
Sculptures can be custom made to fit requests for particular animals, species of animals, sizes, or types of wire used.
No two works are exactly alike due to the intuitive sculpting process, and each piece is signed with the artist's initials interwoven with the wire.
