Crazy Fat Pony Sculpture

Whimsically overscaled and utterly charming, this pony sculpture is rendered entirely in an open, hand-worked wire mesh that gives its rotund body an airy, lantern-like presence despite its solid stance. Blackened wire defines the mane, legs, and face while a warmer gilded mesh wraps the belly, creating a two-tone play of light and shadow as it filters through the intricate lattice; a wispy tail and perked ears add just the right note of playful attitude. A striking conversation piece for a console, mantel, or gallery shelf, where its sculptural silhouette and see-through texture can be appreciated from every angle.
