DescriptionA small cast bronze editioned outline of a figure from the Bell “Sumer” series is the subject. The patina is black and the figure is created as a stick figure with curved arms touching the mid-section. Initially created using a computerized sketch program Bell carried the idea into a concept narrative for the figures based on a fictionalized mythology of the early (pre-Babylonian) civilization of Sumer.On View
