Bait

Terra cotta, lifesize, or about 5 and a half feet tall. Photography by Dario Garafallo.

Bait is an allegorical narrative, which speaks about the disillusionment which sometimes accompanies achieving our goals. Is this what we really wanted?

I hesitate to explain elements of sculpture that seem, to me, to need no explanation. Several elements in the sculpture combine to do the explaining for me; the knife, the scar, the bait.
