Terry Kreiter sculpture
I’ve been contributing sculpture to the ICA annual auction - Institute of Contemporary Art, San Jose, CA, for over 30 years. I create a new sculpture each year specifically for the auction.
Artist note: The tragedies in this Trilogy are: Water, Oil, and Gold.
Below are images to show the progression of the sculpture
