This past week I was a guest artist at LMU collaborating with a new literature and visual art class based on the story of Moby Dick. I created an eight foot harpoon similar in design of the types made in the late 1800's. It is suspended by fishing line three floors surrounded by shipping rope on the base marble platform below. Students created hand made brushes and ink marks that will be displayed in this installation. I was invited by professor Jane Brucker to work with her class to teach the art of brushmaking and inform students on how sculpture is created for public presentation. The installation will be on display until December, 2014. Additional objects & text will be introduced in the near future. More photos to follow soon. Had a great time & I look forward to seeing the finished display in November.
