Nick Cave (b. 1959, Fulton, Missouri, United States) lives and works in Chicago, Illinois, United States. A·mal·gam is a monumental new sculpture derived from Cave’s first soundsuit, made in response to the Rodney King incident of 1991. The bronze work is cast from found tree branches, vintage toile flowers, ceramic birds, and the artists own hands. The sculpture acts as a community beacon to celebrate the power of each of us as unique individuals defined by our differences.
