Carolyn Hutchison "Yellow Hair" at the Joyful Jewel 7-1-15

"Yellow Hair"
Carolyn Hutchison
wood, metal & plastic sculpture

Carolyn Hutchison began making these wood faces after she retired from being Chief of Police in Carrboro.  This one is a favorite of mine, using the yellow strands from a plastic bag.  What fun!

Carolyn: I enjoy 'making faces' using materials that would otherwise be landfill-bound: broken tools, rusty pieces and parts, unidentified objects found in the street, old wood, etc. If I see eyes, noses, mouths, and other facial features in these items. I think of my work as 'facelifts'--faces lifted from the world/environment. each piece is one-of-a-kind.
