Artwork Description

Mark Lindquist applied deep carvings to the entire surface of Ascending Bowl #1. The lines of intersecting texture sweep upward from the narrow base to the large opening and distort the grain of the wood. Lindquist often responds directly to the shape of the wood, and in this piece the natural cracks and blemishes form an integral part of the design. (See also 1981.131.)
