Peter DeCamp Haines, Inner Eagle
2005 Bronze, 86” x 49” x 34”


Inner Eagle is a mythic bird/human figure combined with architectural elements. The use of compound curves, negative space, geometry, and clean silhouette are hallmarks of Haines’ work, which explores the formal aspects of sculpture: form, line, space, scale and composition.
