NICHOLAS SULLIVAN, ‘BLUE STOVE’, 2022.
newsprint, pigment, steel.
15 x 16 x 24 in.
BTW: Nicholas Sullivan . . custom-makes the ‘tiered’ pedestal / bases – upon which this eerily, almost luminous green, 2 ft. tall ‘stove’
stands upon.
they are in fact, part of the piece,
I say: Bravo !! x 1 million.
they are made in perfect proportions, so much so,
I initially thought this ‘faux’ stove . . was – life-size !!
though, I guess in the right setting, his sturdier faux sculptures, like this . . one could be set down without a base ? as some kind of random curio ?
like an over-sized piece of spectacularly incredible . . dollhouse accessory / furniture.
what can I say ? it’s a strange kind of object. and yet a stove, in form.
well, the imagination – does get . . lit !!
