" Swaying, in the field of reeds " is a steel sculpture created by Scott Wilkes which is somewhat of an introspective piece. Made by welding thousands of small steel rods together and then ground and sanded to create a smooth flowing form. She is mounted on a steel plate so she can freely stand alone. She is not for wall mount. She is sealed to protect her from the elements but I would not recommend her for outdoor placement. She stands 32" tall x 19" wide x 12" deep and weighs 39 lbs.

The meaning to me behind this piece was more of a concept based on some recent events in my life,,

The Field of Reeds (sometimes called The Field of Offerings), known to the Egyptians as A'aru, was a mirror image of one's life on earth. The goal of all was to live a life that you would want to live again in the afterlife. The swaying, is the winds of change that come from many directions and could be as gentle as a breeze or as hard as a blistering gust which could uproot so many good intensions.

Scott Wilkes is a contemporary American sculptor. Wilkes is working with metal and his goal is taking a medium which in so many ways is usually considered cold, hard, rigid and rough and making something which conveys softness, warmth, movement and flow. Primary subject of his sculptures is the female form.
