Drifting
Towards the Gulf is a body of sculpture work created by Assimilation Artist
Grey Cross. Each piece in the collection uses driftwood found by the artist
from the Mississippi River. The diversity of the shapes and sizes of driftwood
as a component for sculpture captured Grey’s attention and imagination and he
went to work after some brief experimentation developing this unique body of
thirty sculptures.
Each
sculpture includes a certificate of authenticity signed, dated and fingerprinted
by the artist.
