The boy puppet Pinocchio is depicted from the waist up with his long spiraling nose falling to the ground. The color transitions gradually from blue on Pinocchio’s body to red and peach on his extended nose. Black text surrounding him reads (and repeats in parts), "He tells a lie, and as a punishment his nose grows longer.”
2017, Gift to the Eskenazi Museum of Art, Indiana University from the artist, Jim Dine
