Crane Sculpture

A sculptural study in arrested motion, the Crane captures the bird's elemental geometry — outstretched wing, poised neck, the elegant tension of a creature mid-thought — rendered entirely in metal and aluminum. At twenty-six inches tall and thirty-two inches wide, it commands a console or credenza with the quiet authority of something that belongs precisely where it stands. John Richard's hand is evident in the restrained naturalism, the silhouette reading as both specimen and abstraction depending on the light.
