Marion Deconstructed

Marion is an attractive Euro-Asian friend of mine, who I have long wanted to sculpt. When unmolding a wax cast of the sculpture, I accidentally dropped the wax onto the floor. As I tore apart the ruined casting, I glanced at the distorted head in my hand and was taken by the feeling of movement and the reference to classical sculpture in the piece. Art is not always intentional; and, at times, knowing when to embrace accidents is a better route than blindly following one’s initial concept.

Bronze sculptures should be waxed every one to two years.

STATEMENT

My work, both figurative and abstract, arises from my subconscious combined with memory and a spontaneous interaction with a variety of materials. The sculptures have been described as elegant and evocative, yet also earthy and powerful and are imbued with a mythic, numinous, and archetypal awareness that comes directly from my process of creation. My ultimate goal is to have the viewer feel a sense of familiarity with the work...a sense of knowing, of understanding.
