Mr. Potato Head, 2011
walnut, oil, linen, steel
12 x 8 x 5 in
Inspired by cubism and dadism, Mr. Potato Head is an intimate kinetic piece. Three eyes, an ear and a nose are suspended on rods over a mustache and red lips. Interactive, funny and yet slightly disturbing, this sculpture is reminiscent of George Grosz's collage Remember Uncle August, The Unhappy Inventor (1919).
