Silent Wader – Monumental Driftwood & Fossil Stone Sculpture by Jennifer Wack


A reverent presence. A river's memory. A sculptural heron standing in silence.

Silent Wader is a six-foot tall, awe-inspiring driftwood sculpture by Northern Michigan artist Jennifer Wack. Rooted in a 24.5 lb “Fossil Soup” stone, this towering piece is crafted entirely from naturally weathered driftwood and local stone—each curve echoing the quiet strength of the blue heron that inspired it.

The heron’s form is fluid and contemplative, its wings layered with driftwood worn smooth by water, its stance patient and poised. No detail is forced. Everything is found. Collected over years, the materials hold both the hush of riverbanks and the legacy of time.

This is not just a sculpture. It’s a landmark—handcrafted in reverence for the waters we float, the stones we walk, and the wings that rise when we least expect them.
