I received a request from Bonifas a Arts Center for a sculpture donation that will be for an auction May 4. The theme for the auction is Motown Motion. I am from Detroit and damn proud of it, so I made this sculpture. The base is a brake rotor and the five dancing singers are  made using 1/4" wire. Its not quite complete but the basic sculpture is there.This is the third piece in my Motown Sculpture Series.
yeh, I hoid it true da grape vine.......

This is my first attempt at a steam punk(ish sculpture. The base is a Beech root and the vine and leaves are mild steel. The vine is made using re-purposed metal pulled from a swamp, the leaves are sheet metal that was used to make automobile body repairs. The gauge is a speedometer from a Model A Ford. This is the second from my Motown Sculpture Series.
