JJ Walker England, b. 1965
15 x 9 x 7 7/8 in
Only 66 years separate the first successful powered aeroplane flight and our arrival on the moon. The androgynous figure of Propeller head is poised as if readying to take-off. A type of modern day angel bridging the gap between inculcated beliefs and the modern gods of science and medicine. A mix of man and machine celebrating human ingenuity and our ability to defy gravity. The bronze figure is poised—caught in a moment, composed and compressed for flight. Captured with the dynamic intensity of an Andalusian flamenco dancer at the cierre (or close) of a series of phrases. Arms caught in ‘braceo’.
