Ray Padron
DAD HAT - Blue Painted Wood Sculpture of Baseball Cap

2019

About the Item

DAD HAT is a sculpture by Ray Padrón created in 2019 from painted and carved soft maple wood. The piece belongs to a series of work centering around clothing items and their relation to people in the artist’s life. DAD HAT is the first piece in which Padron used 3D modelling and digital scanning techniques. The blue color layer is traditional milk paint. The sculpture embodies a simple blue baseball cap, and represents a hat owned by the artist himself and worn during his first experiences of fatherhood. Similarly to other sculptures from the series, the “collapse” method is used to represent the sense of loss, but also as a metaphorical “crushed” feeling of tiredness the artist felt as a young father trying to upkeep a full-time job. Dad Hat was featured as part of the RepresenTENN group exhibition at the Channel To Channel Gallery.
