A monumental sculpture derived from a found dumpster and reimagined through the histories of Romantic painting, Dada, assemblage, and the readymade. Referencing Théodore Géricault’s The Raft of the Medusa, the work translates key elements of the painting into sculptural form: large pieces of reclaimed wood evoke the raft itself, while used nautical rope, fabric, a bag, and a hatchet recall the improvised materials and desperate conditions of the shipwrecked survivors.
