A Quick Look: Lloyd Whannell

I call this piece “Sun Catcher.” It is 93″ tall and is made from a salvaged wiresaw basalt offcut. I shaped the outer edge and added a metal band to create a circle for more definition. To give it a larger scale, I used a length of columnar basalt for the base.

This was one of two pieces chosen for Langley’s new outdoor sculpture program, and will be on display on Second Avenue until December 2015.

There is a current call to artists for next year’s sculptures. Go to Langleywa.org for an application. The deadline for submissions is July 1, 2015.
