2024, Ceramic, enameled Copper, Wood, Brass and Metal, 27hx16wx10d The upper part of a deer figure in ceramic rests on a metal brace attached to a tall 6x6 block of wood.
The figure has its arms outstretched to either side, a bright blue enameled copper ring between the arms and body and with hands and face turned upwards. Along the arms are rings of brass wire that raise upward and support eight peace lily flowers in white on copper enamel, four for each arm. Where the metal clamp meets the wood, there is a reverse niche carved into the wood and painted a bright blue like the arm feature. Within the niche a brass wire depends from behind the metal clamp to a dark wood lever, stabilized horizontally at the bottom of the niche. This, when pressed moves the arms slightly up and down.
