Deco Piece 101

This sculpture is based on technomorphic design elements found in Art Deco/Art Modern patterns. It also has incorporated some Native American design elements. Budd felt that the site for this sculpture, based on the elements of architectural design developed for the school, needed a strong sense of three-dimensional design to complement the architect’s philosophy and sense of clean design. The work was destroyed in 2008/09 in an accident.
