"Where My Dogs At?"
Slip Log, Concrete, Toy Dog, Paint
The materials used oppose traditional statues or depictions of icons.
I use the wood as a structure based in nature, the cement as a material based in industry, and the toy dog as the trivial object it is. Adding bronze, gold, and chrome surfaces suggests a transformation into a desired or cherished item as a whole. The outcome pokes fun at a gaudy taste, like your crazy neighbor with pink flamingos in his yard.
