This sailboat, rendered in three-dimensional form, is a captivating study in line, form, and light. The artists' signature blend of Mid-Century Modern and Brutalist styles is on full display, with the raw, honest texture of the welded brass wire creating a dynamic and powerful silhouette. Each sail, crafted from a series of parallel metal rods, plays with the light, casting dancing shadows and creating a sense of motion and grace. This is more than a mere depiction of a vessel; it is a celebration of craftsmanship, a timeless work of art that balances geometric precision with the flowing elegance of a boat in full sail. Signed C Jer'e 1976.
