Elephant
1970
This striking sculptural work depicts an elephant rendered in translucent lucite with intricate linear and circular patterns in blue and turquoise tones. The elephant's distinctive raised trunk curves gracefully upward, while the body showcases layered geometric designs including parallel lines, dots, and wave-like motifs. The clear lucite base allows light to pass through the form, creating dimensional depth and visual interest. The piece exemplifies mid-century modern design with its clean lines, bold color palette, and innovative use of cast acrylic material. The work combines naturalistic subject matter with abstract decorative patterning, bridging representational and contemporary art practices.
