Noriko Nakamura

Moon Totem, 2015

Moon Totem is part of a suite of sculptures in which Noriko Nakamura considers the influence of the sun and moon on seasonal and diurnal rhythms of food production. This dynamic, curving limestone sculpture is crowned with a crescent moon and textured with rope-like patterns to suggest sheaves of wheat.
