o’whale

The sculpture titled “O’WHALE” is a mixed-media piece constructed from various pieces of wood, assembled in an abstract and expressive style. The structure appears to depict a stylized whale, with a wooden sign at the top bearing the hand-painted title “O’WHALE.” The sculpture incorporates hand-drawn elements using black ink or marker, adding texture and detail to the wooden surfaces.

One prominent feature is a figure etched or drawn on a curved piece of wood near the base, resembling a cloaked or robed person, possibly referencing Jonah and the Whale from biblical lore. The whale’s tail or fin-like extensions on the side add to the oceanic theme, while the backdrop includes additional colorful drawings, enhancing the artistic presentation.

The piece blends folk-art aesthetics with repurposed materials, making it a unique and thought-provoking creation.
