Travertine. 1987. 12" plus base. Private Collection.
I carved two Nefertiti sculptures more or less at the same time, as an experiment in conveying feeling and tension using simple combinations of a few geometrically simple surfaces.
In both cases, the overall shape of the head and its convex, upward-gazing face reminded me of the Egyptian queen Nefertiti; hence the name.
