PAUL J. NELSON (1970-) “Red Gong” Cast and Acid Etched Glass Sculpture
$695.00
This sculpture by contemporary artist Paul J. Nelson is crafted from cast and acid etched glass and depicts a creature-like abstract form wrapping lanky tendrils around a second, tubular structure; the blackened glass being illuminated by cindering tones of glowing red. Nelson, a graduate of the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana, draws inspiration from bizarre tools and everyday objects, his work juxtaposed by brooding dark comedy, epic fantasy, and a quest for depth in meaning. Resting in a slender stand steadied by a square base, this original sculpture is unsigned by the artist, but is affixed with a title sticker on its underside.
