Steve Edwards: Muzzled Party Animal

Put a muzzle on it! Yes this party animal needs a muzzle. I often use my sculptures to work through issues that are buried deep in my soul. These issues are both personal and universal. This piece points to the issue of duality. How can something that looks like so much fun be so evil? Knowing when to speak up and when we should put a muzzle on it have been constants in my life. I was raised by a fierce, violent alcoholic. I should have told someone, but instead, I put a muzzle on it.
