This forlorn looking
figure has sat in the back row of the Centres open air promenade theatre.
Made of willow on an "armature" or frame, he is called "Waiting
for the New Season". He is a little like Rodin's famous sculpture
"The Thinker". He raises the question, what is he really waiting
for, a return to nature by decay, his branches to spring to life or simply
the next play in the theatre?
In the making process, the artist had to be aware of what the finished piece would look like in its setting. Although it is made from nature, it strangely does not seem to be part of it. |
