Abstract Wood Sculpture - Form and Formless No. 6 - 2018 - Western Red Cedar - Modern, Contemporary, Natural, Freestanding, Grain Pattern Sculpture

If we look at the park landscape in fragments, we separate the objects, the grass, the birds, the pond, the dragonfly; if we look at the whole view, we get the beauty of the interacting parts; if we look under a microscope, we dissect the parts into more parts; if we stand in the environment looking out and watching inwardly, we, the observer now fit into the totality of the setting. The setting extends outward from the park, enveloping the continent, the earth and moves away further still into outer space. It consists of ever smaller components down to particles, quarks and fields. Energy and matter are related; space-time bends with gravitational forces; all constituents are bound up together in an endless flurry of organized chaos. The negative space in the sculpture is a direct counterpart to the material form. The negative space is not less or more important than the material form. They co-exist as body and shadow, light and dark, spring and fall. The engagement of the form and the formless is a truly united one, bound together by the laws of existence, and we, the observer play just as important a role in this engagement, giving light to the piece and its surroundings by the fire of attention.
