Untitled Corten

Two symmetrical steel forms joined together in the top center. Constructed of Corten steel, an oxidized steel that develops a rust-looking patina that prevents weather damage. About this piece, the artist remarked, “Its symmetry is a recurring theme in my work, evoking serenity.”

On plaque: “Brian Monaghan Untitled Corten Steel/Funding by Illinois Arts Council & Fel-Pro Manufacturing Corp.”
