Michael Ferris Jr.'s large-scale sculptures of recycled wood take portraiture to an extreme. His figures, often of close friends and family, are massive; one torso measures more than five feet tall. Ferris' interest is in the balance of extremes; between the stoic and classical compositions of his sculpture and the tattoo-like patterns of painted wood on the clothing and flesh of each figure. As his process develops, Ferris' concentrates on infusing each portrait with genuine human presence.
