Airplane

Copper wire, wood base. I created this piece in late 2008. For this work, I aimed to convey both the industrial heaviness of an airplane, but also the cloudlike floating quality you feel when you’re in one.

 Mount Dora Childrens Home –  The Mount Dora Children’s Home (MDCH) has two main programs — the Single Parent Program (also called the Single Parents Opting for Christ program, or SPOC) and a group home for girls. These dynamic programs seek to serve and positively impact children and families who need food, clothing, counseling, and other basic needs — and a stable, healthy, safe place to call home.  We encourage our residents, both single parents and children, to focus on the future, not on the past, and to have hope that their future lives can be far better than they ever imagined.  Our Christ-centered programs provide a loving, nurturing environment for children and families.
