Art Liestman - Tower of Common Sense
15" x 5 3/4" x 4", big leaf maple, turned and hollowed on the lathe, surface broken and burned.
The tower form is evocative of ancient ruins from various cultures. I'm intrigued by these remnants of old buildings such as ancient fortifications, towers, walls, houses, chimneys, cliff dwellings. The texture and form also remind me of formations of weathered, eroded rock.
