Rollerblade
8.25” x 10.25” x 3 3/8” – 1996
Wheels have been attached to a fabricated
two-blade pocket knife with opened blades.
Meaning:
I created this sculpture as a visual pun—a
play on the word for wheeled in-line skates called Rollerblades,
plus the image of a set of blades in the form of a pocketknife. I
created this sculpture in memory of my grandfather who brought me a
new pocketknife each time he visited. |
