Let me introduce She, a sculpture which will make its DMA debut on May 29 in the Silence and Time contemporary art exhibition. Over the past week, I visited the DMA Web site at least a dozen times, and each time I encountered a detail image of this work. It was not familiar to me. With a little investigation, the case was quickly solved when I discovered that She is a recent acquisition. The sculpture stands six feet and one-half inch tall and weighs more than a ton! The side we see in the image is smooth and polished. The opposite is rough and natural. I wait with great anticipation to officially meet She, and spend a little time in silence contemplating its complexities, beauty, scale, and meaning.
