This abstract sculpture is in the Andres Institute of Art in Brookline, New Hampshire. This is a huge sculpture park with over 100 pieces on several miles of trails. The trails lead up to the summit of a mountain with sculptures lining the way.
Scissors, Paper, Stone is very close to the art studio. It is made of a small boulder suspended inside a four-trunked tree.
"British artist Marcus Vergette used a hunk of granite to create a sort of real-life New Yorker cartoon. “Stone Paper Scissors” includes a tree with five trunks branching from a single root and a large rock wedged in the middle. His message about the piece: “This is a sculpture of contradiction … All the contradictions will resolve when the tree dies and the sculpture rolls down the hillside.”"
