Story

On a recent sojourn into the mountains between art festivals, I chanced upon a veritable graveyard of rusted cans and discarded metal. - Dolan Geiman

I have always admired the enterprising, fearless, knowledge-seeking spirit of those who venture into the wild, particularly those who did so with handed-down wisdom and a knack for tracking by moss tree trunks and starlight.

I try to carry this energy with me on my own adventures into the wilderness, and on a recent sojourn into the mountains between art festivals, I chanced upon a veritable graveyard of rusted cans and discarded metal. A real scavenger-artist’s dream! I toted these back down the mountain and upon return to my studio, decided to put these weathered pieces to use in a sculpture celebrating the very reason they were found: intrepid trekking into the unknown in search of the yet-to-be-found.
