Austin 360
In a mere photograph, it s not easy to capture the liquid beauty of Amy Scofield s suspended sculpture, Topo Chihu.
Seen at the still-new Lydia Street Gallery, it bristles with light. Scofield has manipulated greenish plastic bottles into explosive patterns and attached them to a horizontal metal carriage.
The mind wanders to deep undersea creatures caught in a trap; their transparency makes them all the more vulnerable. It does not take long, however, to see the actual material nature as potentially destructive. If washed out to the sea, these tangles of plastic and metal could do real harm to underwater beasts.
