Lovers, 1999
George Radebaugh
(American, born 1950)
Location: Washington State Arts Commission, Olympia
ABOUT THE ARTWORK
The interwoven composition of George Radebaugh's Lovers sculpture suggests the braided structure and never-ending loops of a lover’s knot. It was created using CDs (compact discs). The color and light of the shimmering CDs change with the viewer's perspective and suggest movement. This artwork is part of his body of CD sculptures showing “that beautiful work can be made with everyday materials.”
This artwork was acquired for the State Art Collection in partnership with Tahoma 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.
