Internationally acclaimed contemporary sculptor Deborah Butterfield (’71, M.F.A. ’73) discusses her formative years at UC Davis, her inspirations and mentors, and how her experience in Northern California still resonates in her work today.
"P.S. These are not horses" is Butterfield’s first solo museum exhibition in California since 1996. She is known for her remarkable equine sculptures crafted from detritus and found materials such as mud, scrap metal, driftwood and fallen branches. The exhibition is on view through June 24, 2024, at the Manetti Shrem Museum.
