The inspiration and subject matter for The
Conscious Traveller derives from the exotic travels
of one of Kleinburg, Ontario's most avid world-
wanderers, Joseph Gottdenker. From the jungles
of central Africa, where leopards lurk on slinky
branches, to the sun drenched plains of Giza
and the Thai Temple Gods who protect the Royal
Palace of Bangkok, the sculpture pulsates with the
insatiable wanderlust of its muse. It's a testament to
a man always on the move in a world that's
rich with visual stimulation.
