Part of Deb Sterna’s Horse Series, "Burgundy Running Horse" captures a sense of speed and movement with a touch of whimsy. The horse’s body, crafted from layered songbook pages, is adorned with musical notes that evoke a rhythmic motion. The bold burgundy mane, made from hemp rope, adds texture and a sense of wildness as the figure seems to gallop through the air, perched on a delicate dome pedestal. The absence of two hooves suggests wear, yet it adds to the piece’s charm, highlighting the ephemeral beauty of motion. This artwork reflects Sterna’s skill in transforming simple materials into dynamic, spirited creations.
