Two new tri-pod pieces finished in new studio

I just finished these two pieces that I am excited about. Both are tri-pod pieces, one with a red wheel and one with a green wheel. Let me know your thoughts.   Thank You   Robert

Bicycle Piece

 When the painter Andre' Durain was on his deathbed, Giacometti the sculptor came to his side

 and asked if there was anything he could get his good friend.  Andre' looked up and said,

"a bicycle and a piece of blue sky"  Bicycle Piece is 10 ft. wide x 6.5 ft. tall and 3 ft. deep.
 All the black is steel and the fender shape is covered in sheet lead. Two piano legs are under the Blue  sphere. Both the sphere and ring are wood painted.   I love this piece.        

                                                                                                                         Robert Strini

Studio Burning

My studio burned down and I lost everything except my creative Spirit.
I am busy back to work and very excited about the new work.
I will soon post new images for all of you to see.  Thank you, Robert

                                                      The Package

                             Loss of something you care for and how

                             you deal with it is what this piece is about.

                             The I -beam,  a symbol of strength supports
                             the weight of all the memories of the loss.

                             The mattress becomes the final resting place

                             of these memories. Other objects are simply 

                             references to specific moments you had with

                             your loss. Finally the marble X, marks the

                             spot, the end, and the moment of letting go.

Walking from the Moon to the Sun, a table for friends

The table is 8 feet long x 35 inches tall x 17 inches deep. Completely made of plate steel and supporting two convex glass mirrors which represent the moon and the sun. A comet is made of birds eye maple wood. Good friends asked me to make a simple glass table for their entrance hall of their new house.
The problem is that one night I had a dream that I was walking through space and I had to create this table. My creative energy was flowing. The figure represents me. I have used this image in several
self-portrait pieces in the past. Please look at the following images.
