Schiller Quote
Private commission based on the quote from Friedrich Schiller, 'Against stupidity the gods themselves contend in vain'. Direct-carved (not copied from a model) in alabaster fragment. Immediately following this quote, Schiller links this sentiment to Athena plunging into the abyss.
Direct carving brings a kind of intense immediacy similar to jumping out of an airplane without knowing if you have a parachute on your back.
