Destruction without Bitterness
1991
Knives
This work has been shown many times, in different sizes and configurations. It has a history similar to that of the Ship of Theseus, in that each time it was sent to an exhibition it returned with a number of knives missing, which I had to replace. Knives seem to be particularly attractive objects to lift. The sculpture was at the '92 Expo in Seville, at the Gotteborg Art Gallery, at the Atlantis Gallery in London... so its soul is well distributed.
