Szoke’s first puli stculpture was monumental public piece which was made in 2013 on the National Mall in Washington D.C. This sculpture is a medium-sized indoor version of the puli, made in the artist's characteristic style of welding many pieces of steel bar. The sculpture comes with a white steel pedestal, with hand sign and plate sign. “This sculpture, created from rebar, represents a Puli dog, and my goal was to craft a unique and eye-catching piece of art. The use of rebar lends a robust and industrial aesthetic to the sculpture, contrasting with the natural, soft appearance of the Puli's distinctive, corded coat. I designed the dog's form in a stylized manner, using the lines and curves of the rebar to capture the essence and movement of this energetic and loyal breed. Through this creation, I aim to evoke emotions and a love for dogs in the viewers.” ABOUT THE ARTIST Gabor M.
