: 
Reincarnation of the Lecher
assemblage of found objects
Dale Copeland
| The joy of finding objects which go perfectly together to tell their story. I was given a lichen-covered garden ornament which the owner loathed. It was a cherubic figure riding on a snail. An ugly and faceless snail. I tried all the heads and faces which were lurking in my studio, and found the perfect one. A smirking and smug-looking man face on an old puppet. A smug and lecherous-looking smart-ass. deserving an after-life as the face of a slug or a snail. |
