Titled Chicken Rhythm, this sculpture channels the playful spirit of Slim Gaillard’s 1940s tune through a fusion of found materials and musical references. At its center is what appears to be an antique French fire hydrant or industrial valve, giving the figure a proud, upright stance. A black feather crest and tail suggest an animated bird, while vintage binocular lenses evoke alert, expressive eyes. Brass trumpet parts—including valves and internal pistons—extend from the sides like gestural wings, reinforcing the rhythmic theme. The form feels both animated and composed, like a character ready to break into syncopated step. The sculpture captures the offbeat energy of early jazz: equal parts visual pun, mechanical grace, and tribute to the joy of improvisation. Stylistically, it aligns most closely with Funk Art, known for its use of found materials, irreverent humor, and spirited figuration.
