Tug Of War

This image of two creatures struggling over the same goal is a metaphor that you can apply to whichever futility you personally engage with the most. They were assembled from salvaged aircraft struts, but their design also owes something to the freight cranes that dominate the horizon near the Port of Oakland adjacent to my studio.
