This Markus Pierson sculpture is a one-of-a-kind, limited edition piece from the 1980s. Made of wood, it features a relaxed coyote man under the moon, leaning against a cactus.


This beautiful, full-of-life wooden sculpture by Markus Pierson from the 1980’s era features a coyote man in a suit, leaning against a cactus under a sleepy moon.


The moon, as with his other sculptures, notches above through the cactus and is removable and his pose insinuates a relaxed vibe and carefree attitude with his hands in his pockets.


✨ Condition notes: This item is unsigned and does not have a certificate of authenticity. There is a slight paint chip on his nose and the moon tip has been previously broken off and re-adhered. Sculpture is in good condition with some minor overall wear for it’s age. See pictures for details.


Inspired by a Joni Mitchell song called “Coyote”, Markus Pierson explores the motif of the coyote in paintings, drawings, mixed-media sculpture, hand-pulled serigraphs, and found object assemblage. “I want the coyotes to whisper in their ears wild, irresponsible notions about self-determination and destiny,” he says. “I want them to grab people by the scruffs of their necks, to inspire them, to change their lives.” Channeling the rugged individualism, fearlessness, and solitude of the coyote’s life, Pierson’s often-humorous images juxtapose anthropomorphic coyotes amidst vast rural landscapes with semi-autobiographical inspirational text. Later in his career, Pierson has incorporated political subtexts in his ever-evolving coyote series.


With influences from postmodernism, art deco, expressionism, pop art, and more, this sculpture is a true representation of Pierson's eclectic style. The piece is in used condition, but still in excellent shape for its age. This is a must-have for any art enthusiast looking for a rare and collectible piece to add to their collection.


Markus Pierson


“There’s no doubt in my mind that my success has more to do with luck than talent, more to do with stubbornness than vision, more to do with ignorance than insight, but the fact remains that I pursued my dream and attained it against staggering odds. I say this now to anyone who will listen: even if I had failed, it would have been worth it. Better to face a brutal truth than to grow old wondering what might have been.” Markus Pierson
