Girl with a ponytail
Size: 46 x 19 x 16 cms
Material: Hardwood.
Date: Spring 2006
A piece that seemed to make itself (often in my favourite pieces I am a technician aiding a process that seems to originate elsewhere). Decisions are of technique rather than aesthetics. Here I started with 2 decisions - the head and neck would meet at a universal joint, and the ponytail would hang vertically wherever the head was positioned. This is at present in the gallery rotating on an electric turntable, which is very striking.
