Colossus

Michele Oka Doner, a graduate of the University of Michigan, is well known for her small-scale bronze sculptures of organic forms and her bronze and terrazzo floor installations. This sculpture is part of a series of figurative sculptures Oka Doner created that were inspired by nature and the sea. Although clearly referencing a human form, elements of the natural world are easily discerned.
