Inspired by the process of etching in traditional print making, Fafard sought to incorporate the techniques of sculpture and etching with laser-cut techniques to produce delicate pieces balancing between traditional and progressive sculptural practices. True to the artist's devotion to the farm animal, the horses in this “Capillery” series focused on not only the exterior form in motion, but explored deeper into the physical capillary network within the animal. This focus highlights the formal qualities of line and form, referencing the process of etching, while signifying the vitality of the horse.
This sculpture is the third in an edition of 7.
