Pinocchio (After Carlo Collodi)
Tim Rollins & Kids of Survival's "Pinocchio (After Carlo Collodi)" is a mixed media sculptural work from 1992 that combines wood, acrylic, wax, and tung oil to create a three dimensional multiple edition of 50. The work engages with the classic Italian children's tale through a contemporary art practice that emphasizes collaboration between the artist and young participants from the South Bronx. By transforming the literary source material into a dimensional object, Rollins & Kids of Survival create a physical manifestation that bridges narrative, craft, and socially engaged artistic practice.
