Description

Through my work, I want to share the beauty and mystery I find in nature. The patterns I use in my work are within us and in the world around us, connecting us all together in the network of life. —Bruce Pollock

Red Wing is a phalanx of flat wooden shapes that fan out like the feathers of a large wing. Balanced on a center axis, the elegant form seems to open and expand.
