The Boat Series: The Disappearance 

Kerry O. Furlani’s “The Boat Series: The Disappearance” is a striking example of low-relief sculpture. The work, carved from a single piece of slate, depicts a boat-like form, possibly a canoe, disappearing into the water. The artist uses a dynamic composition to create a sense of movement as the boat sinks below the surface. The circular ripples carved into the slate represent the disturbed water, creating a sense of depth and drawing the viewer’s eye into the scene. This piece is a powerful reminder of the fragility of life and the inevitability of change.
