" The lines that are there , and the ones we choose to cross "
This figure is somewhat based off someone I was close to named " Jewels " which was actually her pet name . The meaning I must leave a bit cryptic for good reason. There are 2 parts to the meaning of this piece . The first part : the lines that are there . If you look close at the piece, I made some solid lines which are fundamental lines of the female form. The wisp of the leg and hip , the curve under the breasts , the line of the ribcage and the lines of the collar bones. The second part of the meaning is a bit more poignant. There are lines in life and the decisions we make , that we CHOOSE to make , sometimes directly cross the lines of life, and sometimes indirectly . I chose to cross some of the lines in life and the outcome was not what I would have liked, truthfully , I made a mess of things . I so wish I could mend things but I crossed so many lines directly and indirectly that things have splintered ,which is what I was trying to convey with this piece .
This piece stands 35" tall and is 18" wide at her widest point which is the tips of her arms. The baseplate is 11" x 11" and she weighs 22.4 pound
