A student of
prominent public sculptors Mark di Suvero and John Henry, Clement's work has been exhibited and installed worldwide, including recent
installations at the Garrison Art Center (Garrison, NY), Georgia Tech (Atlanta, GA), Elon University (Elon, NC), and the Frost Art Museum (Miami, FL).
The piece, which sold early in the weekend, is a fascinating departure from the hyperrealistic sculptures of human figures and plants for which Matelli is best known, as seen in such
prominent recent
public installations as the High Line.
