(2) Barbara Harrison (Born 1942) American, Abstract Acrylic Sculptures. Titled "Topography". 

Designed to viewed from above. Made with a blow torch, paper, glue, and multimedia components.

From the artist's website: "My two series, TOPOGRAPHY, and BURNED/ SLASHED/ PAINTED, resulted from further experimentation with acrylic. Until then, my emphasis had always been on the sculpture’s final form. Here, however, the process was paramount. The process of burning, then gauging and staining this translucent material was meant to evoke images of destruction, both geographic and human."  

Size: 35 x 33 in.
