"Yellow Stag" Steel Sculpture by Gordon Chandler

About the Item

Upon discovering a weathered steel drum that had been warped to resemble the sleeve of a garment, artist Gordon Chandler was inspired to embark on a series of kimono sculptures formed from found metal scraps. With an eye to the aesthetic possibilities of this humble material, Chandler invests reclaimed steel with sculptural fluidity and a wry sense of form. A relatively simple example of Gordon Chandler's ongoing buck head series, this wall mounted sculpture titled "Yellow Stag" traces the silhouette of a male deer head in a sheet of found steel. Cut from an industrial oil drum, the steel is finished with a bright yellow coating textured with rust spots and fragments of the original painted text. Industrial and modern, we love this sculpture as a contemporary twist on the traditional mounted deer head.
