Rebirth of Nanabijou

Start/Completion date:   2017

Description:  Figurative sculpture of the Sleeping Giant.  The sculpture is a 2x enlargement of the clay maquette. 

Artist Intention:

"The rebirth of Nanabijou" is sculpted from the finest Carrara statuario marble, hand selected in Italy. This sculpture is a play on the silhouette of the Sleeping Giant, a National landmark located in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada. I utilized the classic enlargement by caliper method to render this sculpture.

The sculpture can sit on a stainless steel base. The sculpture and base are 14x38x9 inches. Both sit atop a grey painted wooden box that is 32x46x18 inches.
