Description

Physical Description:

Believing that sculpture should affirm the continuity of the human spirit despite the threat of nuclear and racial holocausts, she called them 'altars' and 'sanctuaries'...Reminiscent of ancient cycladic idols of Greek columns, the tapered shafts crowned with arcs or wedge forms stand like gods and goddesses against the sky, each slightly different from the next— just as we are all different from one another, yet have a common humanity."
