Rock-Paper-Scissors
Gillette, Wyoming
A whimsical, monumental representation of the classic hand game, constructed with high-minded artistic technique in bronze and steel.
The Art & The Artist
Standing outside the Gillette News Record building, this distinct public sculpture is a playful nod to decision-making. The piece features a stacked arrangement: a large rock base, a sheet of paper, and scissors perched on top.
Crafted from powder-coated cast stainless steel and patinated cast bronze.
