(sold!) Little Miss Know It All

Artist
Sara Petroff
Description
An ode to outdated, obsolete and discarded references of knowledge, sculpted entirely from vintage dictionaries, physics texts from the 1940's, old tape measures, historical maps and vintage musical scores,. Now, all of this information is available with the touch of your phone. 
This form of a "Know-It-All" schoolmarm against a dusty old chalkboard really sets the scene... My mother was a school teacher, tiny in stature and this reminds me of her.
