Gallery LabelThree-Way Piece No. 1: Points is named for the bulging forms that make up the mass of the sculpture and the three tapering points that support it. An abstract sculpture, it was inspired by the artist's abiding interest in stones and bones. Here, textural surfaces and colors alternate, ranging from smooth to deeply gouged, and from golden to rich brown.
