Celebration
Assemblage of found objects
Steel parts of an old piano, with marbles. Set in concrete.
41 cm high, 24 cm diameter
(and very heavy!)

| I dismantled an old piano.
Beautifully made, with hundreds (thousands?) of screws. And these steel supports which looked so like rejoicing humans. To me they looked like a couple of adults rejoicing at the happiness of their children. Concrete was all I could use to hold them upright and dancing. Surrounded with glass marbles like bubbles in champagne. |
