Cornucopia, 2001

George Radebaugh
(American, born 1950)

Location: Artz-Fox Elementary School, Mabton

ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Artist George Radebaugh created the sculpture Cornucopia out of used Compact Discs. It is part of a series of musical instrument forms. He notes, "I try to use all scrap materials when available. The overlapping technique that I have often employed in my work lately suggests fish scales. As the viewer moves the light and color reflected by the piece changes greatly implying a motion in the otherwise still work."

This artwork was acquired for the State Art Collection in partnership with Mabton School District.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Artist and musician George Radebaugh creates playful sculptures and large-scale installations comprised entirely from compact discs. He is based in Port Townsend, on the Olympic Peninsula in Northwestern Washington.
