The Giant Blue Crab is finally in his new home, all nestled in for the long winter
...and just in time!
Well, this would not have been possible without a lot of help along the way...first, I'd like to thank my dad for letting me take over his shop for the past few months. I've had scrap metal all over the yard, blue paint all over the floor, and grinding bits in every nook and cranny! (Sorry about the mess.) Next, I'd like to thank everyone who helped me gather all the parts and pieces it took to make this sculpture: the Wentworth Scrap yard (Portsmouth, NH), Seacoast Harley Davidson (N. Hampton, NH), Car World (Candia, NH), and Cycles 128 (Beverly, MA). I would also like to thank the City of Dover, the Dover Community Services Department, and the Dover Arts Commission for making this installation not only possible, but for making it such an incredibly smooth (and speedy) process! And finally, I'd like to thank the Children's Museum of NH and all of it's wonderful staff for taking such a warm interest in my project, embracing it as their own, and helping to see it through to the end! Without you guys the Crab would not have such a wonderful new home!
Best wishes,
Nate
