Reinvention

A literal reinvention of the wheel. By recreating something as unoriginal as the "first" invention, I exaggerate my opinion of originality. The wheel was carved from a poured cement slab with an immobile axel staked in place to represent sculpture unmoving in time. I want the viewer to not feel as though sculptures are fresh ideas, but reiterations of past ideas.
