Laowai

This is Charred Man. He was a fixture in my mom’s living room when I grew up. Mom says he was a gift from her brother Tad – a friend of Tad’s made him. Now he lives with us and gives us a healthy appreciation for modern art. He is very evocative of the sculptures by Swiss artist Alberto Giacometti that I saw in Zurich.

I’m happy to have Charred Man living with us now.
