About the Item
"Blowing in the Wind" is a bronze sculpture created by artist Maidy Morhous. The sculpture is 1 of an edition of 15.
An accomplished printmaker as well as sculptor, Maidy Morhous was born in Upstate New York. She currently creates out of her studio in Del Mar, thirty minutes north of San Diego, California. Morhous received her Master of Fine Arts degree while continuing studies at Stanley Hayter's Atelier 17 in Paris, France in the mid-1970's. Before returning to the States, she traveled to Italy to study casting techniques at the Marinelli Foundry in Florence, Italy. Morhous became fascinated with how bronze, a cold, hard metal, could take on such a soft sensuous appearance, and has since worked exclusively with bronze.
Maidy Morhous' sculptures cannot be taken in with one glance. They pull in the viewer and force them to react and question what they are viewing; be it to question life and one's existence, the world's plight, or just to bring a smile to one's face. Morhous has spent years examining social critique, political, and cultural issues. The resistance to the oppression of socially inscribed narratives and socially dominating practices presented sublimely to the viewer are open to interpretation. Her recent artwork is devoid of the human form, which permeates most of her early sculptures, adding a refreshing twist on commentary.
Morhous is currently showing in several exhibits across the country, including a solo exhibition at Tohoku Fukushi University, Sendai, Japan, and at the Oceanside Museum of Art in Oceanside, California. She is also featured in the award winning documentary film "One," by Heartland Films Inc. Her recently commissioned sculpture "Humanity" is the subject of the documentary. Maidy's work can be found in public and private collections in the United States, Japan, Europe and Canada.

- Chiseled stone sculpture from my "Insider Series" titled "Disengaged # One"By Mark Beltchenko StudioLocated in Grosse Pointe Park, MITitle: "Insiders Series (Disengaged #1.): A Tactile Journey Through Form and Narrative" "(Disengaged #1.)" from the "Insiders Series" emerges as a singular masterpiece—a one-of-a-kind sculpture meticulously crafted from hand-carved limestone and an assortment of metals thoughtfully chosen for their color and malleability. This work, like its counterparts in the series, transcends the boundaries of visual exploration, inviting the beholder to engage in a tactile experience that unravels a narrative both familiar and enigmatic. The sculpture beckons exploration not just with the eyes, but with the hands—a deliberate choice that transforms the artwork into an interactive encounter. As hands traverse the surface of the stone, a world unfolds, both impenetrable and inviting, offering a tactile journey that complements and completes the visual narrative. Each touch becomes a discovery of the familiar and the unknown, an invitation to unravel the layers of meaning embedded in the carved form. The core of this freestanding sculpture is hand-carved Indiana limestone...Category
