Mojave Half Julia Haack Scrap plywood, salvaged lath, alkyd paint
Artist's Statement:
Because of the information about global warming, environmental disasters and misuse and overuse of world commodities, I try to reduce my personal footprint by using as much salvaged material as possible. "Mojave Half" is built with the scrap plywood from another sculpture, and salvaged lath from a construction site. The repetitive curving shape is a reference to an obscene development in the Mojave Desert.
