Michael Aram Tortoise Sculpture 176113

21.25"Lx 10.5"Wx 34"HBase10.5"Lx 7"Wx 2"HNatural BrassStainless SteelThe Tortoise Sculpture is a celebration of beauty and time. The shape is derived through a complex combination of seemingly random lines which come together to form a geometric pattern. Known for their long lives, this sculpture reminds us that our history is a long, methodical journey. Through understanding, determination, and strength, we will accumulate the treasures of knowledge. I love the incredible shapes found on the shell of a tortoise. They are geometric yet completely random in their arrangement. It seems impossible that something like that would come directly from nature.
