Pinwheel 1

$0.00

Whimsical? Floral? Yes! Pinwheel 1 is a straw marquetry work in which the composition reads at once as sunburst, flower, and kinetic form. The dyed rye straw has been laid in a pattern of “blades” that radiate from the center in a continuous rotational sweep. The palette is dominated by warm burnt orange tones, with a rectangle of cool gray-brown at the center, and natural undyed straw at the corners. The silken sheen of the straw surface shifts with light and viewing angle, giving the piece a luminosity that changes as the viewer moves around the piece. Float framed in maple, 12in x 12in

• Size: 12in x 12in
• Framed: 13in x 13in (float framed in maple)
