Focus on this artwork and analyze the Description.
The two-part cast and fabricated bronze sculpture represents two life size sapling trees with bound root balls left for planting. The horizontal element (part A) measures 44” x 11’ with a 19” diameter base. The vertical element (part B) measures 75” x 21” with a 16” diameter base. “The lack of a formal base allow for the objects to appear more temporary or transformation. As if they had been left there by a landscaper rather than an artist,” stated Nordgulen. "The perception of sculpture is a physical experience that can become a catalyst for new thoughts and ideas."It was selected for exhibition for the Herron Gallery First Sculpture Invitational in 2005 showcasing the work of 15 artists, each represented by a single work. Participating artists include Katrin Asbury, David Bellamy, Barbara Cooper, Wim Delvoye, Casey Eskridge, James Wille Faust, Don Gummer, Greg Hull, Edward Mayer, Arny Nadler, Eric Nordgulen, Tom Otterness, John Ruppert, Tom Sachs and Judith Shea.
