Walter's Ontogen

Featured in BIG, on view from November 16, 2007 - April 6, 2008, Eric Rudd's sculpture, "Walter's Ontogen," is an enormous, amorphous creature whose limbs and torso move slowly and rhythmically, reminiscent of body-builders. Created by the innovative use of common insulation and building materials, painted and constructed around an armature, its compressor-driven movement is initiated by a motion detector.
