Midnight - Majestic Sculpture of Mongolian Animal, Altai Argali in Rainbow Color
By Yulia Shtern
Located in Gilroy, CA
"Midnight," is a stunning sculpture by Canadian artist, Yulia Shtern. She as modeled this work after the endangered Mongolian species Altai Argali. The animal is brightly colored, in a rainbow color scheme in this work. She has done a fabulous job of making her subject matter eye catching and dynamic. Shtern styles this series after the tradition of mounting heads by hunters, but instead she gives life to her up-cycled materials and fights against the inhumane act of trophy hanging. Follow our storefront, or message us for more works by Yulia Shtern, and for special pricing.
From the artist: "One of the biggest, ugliest truths of our time is that we have been knowingly destroying our planet and killing off its natural life in pursuit of the falsehoods promised by mass consumption. Displaying a trophy of a stuffed dead animal...

"What is it About Old Men and Flowers?" (quoted from artist Richard Turner)
By Michael Davis
Located in Palm Desert, CA
Quote from RT on style subject matter.
From the model image the actual artwork evolves in the studio. What was once a model
is now a reference. The act of making, testing material compatibility, critical evaluation,
chance, gesture and the Illuminating accident often shift the final concept. Ine artwork
has a lite of its own.

Esmeralda Mine, (Rare Earth), NV
By Michael Davis
Located in Palm Desert, CA
I began to incorporate these Landsat images into a new body of work titled "Rare Earth." Each Rare Earth artwork includes an archival image of a specific mine rendered in classic 3D (anaglyph) off-registration referencing mid-century exuberant optimism, geopolitical history, cultural signifiers, symbolic design patterns and phenomena
The formal and elegant composition belies the actual relationship of the cause and effect of rare earth mining.
