Protected Pod
Please click on the images for a more detailed view.
Borrowing from the design of thorn defended small seed pods and floral buds against predators, this sculpture gives the appearance of protecting something at its core. Hidden within is a device intended to aid the job of protecting, and is known historically for "leveling the playing field" between tyrants and the vulnerable -or criminals and the vulnerable. A beautiful balance of delicacy in form and power in function, "Protected Pod" is truly one of a kind in the world of fine art, and a very timely response to the always present but currently elevating confiscatory will of world rulers. Power to the people -the true determinists of fine art and personal destiny.
