Theo Riser
Original Sculptural Lighting by Bobby Anderson, RVA246
Theo Riser is built to explain things.
Tall, articulate, and suspiciously well informed, Theo approaches the world with an objective: make sense of it honestly and rationally. His articulated arms can gesture, greet visitors, point something out, or hold small objects while he works through the problem.
Then there is the bonus routine.
With very little encouragement, Theo can also construct an impressively elaborate, barely plausible scenario suitable for fringe media teasers, speculative conversations, or the opening act of an original screenplay.
His illuminated head features a glowing green eye and radiating fiber optics, turning thought itself into part of the sculpture. The head rotates, the arms move, and the entire figure shifts from calm explainer to animated storyteller with surprisingly little provocation.
