16. Fowl Ball

Lee W. Badger - Hedgesville, West Virginia

Forged and Welded Weathered Steel

Fowl Ball is a celebration of geese, ducks, turkeys and chickens. Descendants of dinosaurs that ruled the earth–now we eat them. They had fierce and fearsome ancient ancestors but today they can represent someone who's silly, foolish, witless or cowardly. This sculpture treats fowl with humor and respect, portraying them on the lighter side of art. In this configuration, the bird profiles become abstract, disjointed shapes, like the shapes of the spaces in between.
