Man on Tricycle
2005
A larger-than-life human figure, crafted from steel, epoxy resin, and expansion foam, sits astride a real tricycle in a striking fusion of sculpture and everyday object. Will Ryman's work blurs the boundary between the monumental and the mundane, transforming an ordinary childhood vehicle into a vehicle for exploring themes of scale, vulnerability, and the human condition. The rough, textured surface of the figure contrasts with the mechanical simplicity of the tricycle, creating a haunting yet playful tension between the two elements.
