Description
Mettle by Bruce Edmundson
“Mettle” is a homage to the strength of character, grit and perseverance of everyone affected by the pandemic. There is a lot of pessimism about, and this piece speaks to the ability to push through the darkness, to remember the good qualities that abound. There is a lot of darkness, depth, detail and scars in this piece. It has survived chainsaws, insects, weather and fire. And it landed here, preserved, a monument of sorts, testimony to the resilience of nature, of which we are a part. – Bruce Edmundson
