Metal Sculpture: Dusty Miller

A meter-long steel sculpture, with the likeness of a Dusty Miller leaf. It is light green and has a soft texture finish. The finishing is Soylent, a man-made factory produced powdered meal, replacement for plant and animal food. How natural is that? Maybe or maybe not healthy, but an imitation of good health through otherwise naturally found nutrients, vitamins, minerals. Like this metal leaf, trying to imitate what nature already produces for us.

This is a steel sculpture made by gas welding techniques, also with the help of tools such as a diacro bending machine and plasma cutter, and shaping with a hammer. It has a soft texture and is made to represnt a particular leaf, called a Dusty Miller leaf. It is about 4 feet stem to tip, a bit longer than a meter.

Here is the Dusty Miller leaf that this sculture was inspired by.

It is quite small.

Disappear!
