'Wave Hill' was cast in bronze at the former Johnson Atelier Technical Institute of Sculpture (now The Seward Johnson Atelier) from the original wood sculpture of the same name. The tall, tapering, long-necked vessel form is one that fascinates Ressler, as he has created many other works of that genre in carved wood, and in a range of sizes. The artist recognizes the associations that these vessels have with female imagery and energy.
