- The Fin Project: From Swords to Plowshares (faculty.washington.edu)
This work is an environmentally scaled sculpture created using the actual diving-plane fins from decommissioned United States Navy attack submarines built in the 1960s. The fins are arranged to simulate the dorsal fins of a large Orca whale pod or a school of salmon. This artwork represents the ultimate in recycling….“From Swords into Plowshares”.
