No. 002, Male Torso, 2005
In my second attempt at sculpting, I wanted to see if I could represent a human body, but was not ambitious enough to try to make a face as well, so I decided on a male torso.  Most people who look at this medal are drawn to the penis.  I don't think I exaggerated its size, but traditionally sculptors seem to have purposely diminished the penis size so as not to detract from the body itself.  I think that the naked figure of a young male or female should elicit sexual feelings; our brains are hard-wired for that.  And I think this one does, so I feel good about the outcome.
