A MOMENT OF EQUINE MAJESTY AT THE COLLEGE’S HEART
The many students and visitors who have stopped in their tracks to gaze at the proud stallion in the Prescott Campus Admin Building have Prescott sculptor and YC adjunct instructor Carl Dahl to thank. Using glazed, fired clay, metal wire and wood, Dahl’s work fuses classic Greek sculpture motifs with the rough-hewn subjects of the desert and the American West. The sculpture is his gift to the College. “Teaching at Yavapai has been/is one of the most meaningful experiences of my life,” he said. “Teaching opened my eyes to other ways of seeing and shortcomings in my own work [and] brought me some amazing friends, as well.” See more of Carl Dahl’s work at: www.carl.dahl.com
