Three Figures, Steel sculpture in Portland, United States.
Three Figures is a steel sculpture in Portland made from cut metal elements arranged to form human shapes. The work shows skilled metalwork through precise cuts and the assembly of separate pieces into recognizable forms.
Mark Bulwinkle made the three figures in 1991–1992, each standing 8 to 10 feet tall. They were first installed at AVIA's corporate headquarters, then donated to the City of Portland and moved to Northeast 13th Avenue and Holladay Street so they would appear to be enjoying the green space. The work belongs to the City of Portland and Multnomah County Public Art Collection through the Regional Arts & Culture Council.
