Head (The Prize)
clay sculpture
Linda Larsen of USA

Head (The Prize) Earthenware clay, fired and waxed. Slightly larger than life-size. The story behind the head: as it was drying in the leather-hard stage, I dropped it. The drop smashed in the face so that it became less-precious, and to me, more real. I thought of Danny O’keefe’s lyrics to his song, The Prize and it all fit. When you're down don't let'em count you out You can still get up again You'll never be a loser 'cause you know how to win There's love and courage in your heart No matter what they say That's what makes a winner, Baby, and they can't take that away No, they can't take that away. |
