BUCKET

BUCKET

After a few years of letting the Dig sculpture settle into the landscape it was time to bring back the watering hole that was taken away from its excavation. The excavator bucket, quite the utilitarian tool, is turned upside down and painted with concrete. No longer will the bucket dig out the earth below, but instead it will catch the rain from the sky above. A sculpture for reflection, but more importantly a fountain for the wildlife that consists of deer, wild turkeys, feral cats, and one Miniature Australian Shepherd. It took Little Italy, it took a ‘Shed’, and it took a 20 ton 'Dig'. Although 'Bucket' might be the smallest sculpture within this landscape it's the keystone that holds it all together.
