CONCEPTUAL ART—THE GIANT HEAD. When Annalisa was in college, she took a required sculpture course. Annalisa had done a lot of painting, but very little sculpture. One of the assignments was to sculpt a life size head of themselves—a self portrait. The instructor put on a condition that the head be life size—no small sculptures.
Annalisa proceeded to make a head that was over twice life size. It was enormously heavy. Annalisa never liked it, but Mary Jane was attached to it, and we took the head with us when we moved to the new house. It helped that the move was done by Muscleman Movers.
I made it so large to be sure not to get docked points that would prevent me from being awarded an A on the project. I was determined.
