Stretching the Imagination

In this large outdoor version, the hands are three-times natural size. The idiom ‘stretching the imagination’ is expressed through life-like hands literally stretching a face to create elongated hollows in the eye sockets and cheeks and a broad smiling mouth. The spaces allow the sculpture to merge with the surroundings and the views through them stimulate the imagination. The sculpture is rounded and tactile, and its low stature allows interaction with the entire surface.
