From the "Blown Away" Series


Artist's Statement: "My 'Blown Away' series, highlighted by 'You blew Me Away' is in response to the strong emotions that affect us all at key points in our lives, the physical impact they have on our bodies and the influence external or environmental forces whilst in this state. I am currently constructing a further three within this series, 'Resilience' focusing our own unexpected strength in difficult times enabling us to remain constant and true, 'From me to You' showing the deep and direct connection between our inner selves and finally 'Information overload' conveying the effects of the constant bombardment of information in our daily lives." The sense of movement and dynamics within sculpture provides it with life and vitality and whilst remaining true to the use of simple, raw materials, my aim is to capture this. The contrasting and concurrent methods I am using provide different challenges due to the nature of the materials and their own restrictions. I am exploring the use of layers, light reflection with hard or textured edges to create a sense of fluidity.

Dragon in the mist! Isn't that beautiful and menacing all at the same time? Is there a theme today-the dragons are encroaching :o

Majestic is just the right word NR.
At first I thought the antlers were tree branches but I the metal is just as effective. :72:
