Cod Variations at BOSI Contemporary, New York, NY, July 7 – August 11, 2012

Cod Variations sculpture series playfully examines male genitalia. Through a whimsical and imaginative lens, it takes poetic license by exaggerating reality. The work explores the physical form in addition to the psychological dimension such as pride & power, often associated with this part of male anatomy.

Blending humor, symbolism and psychology, the exaggerated line and scale of the work evinces the hubris of a nation, suggesting the caricature of the Cartoon Action Hero, logo and branded identity.
