Perched on a pedestal, Afsaneh is at first glance an owl carved in beige marble. In Julia Scher’s imagination however, the form of the owl is not strictly bird-like, the stance and legs are modeled on those of humans, specifically of men, while the imposing shoulders and brow are of human and horse origins. Even the owl’s coat is a mix of feathers and hair.
