Opening or closing, moving or motionless, Appearance of Being No. 4 stands freely with asymmetrical structural balance—holding itself up, in all its parts, as a dynamic and harmonious entity.

Art by human,
Into its depth we stare,
Not knowing which way it flows
Nor which face is front.

Sharing a journey of existence
With each other in joy and balance,
Celebrating life in its mystery
And beauty.

Fleeting moments,
Images, ideas and forms
Come and go in time—
Flashing in and out of the physical arena.

Energy and material,
dancing unceasingly together
In a cosmic show of popularity,
Day or night, rain or shine,
The show goes on in timeless eternity.

Carved from Port Orford Cedar finished with its natural surface smoothed, the lightness in colour and flowing grain patterns work with the form to present a sense of weightless motion. The wood has a pleasant lemony scent and the smoothness of the surface can be enjoyed when held.

Art website: mikesasaki.com I was born in Toronto, Canada. I graduated from the Bachelor of Design Honours program at York University / Sheridan College in 2005. I lived in Tokyo, Japan for 5 years where I was immersed in traditional and modern Japanese culture. The martial arts philosophies have strengthened the peaceful aspects of my sculpture. In my search for a hands-on approach to life and work, I had found sculpting in wood like an epiphany. I am currently living in Metro Vancouver and focusing on the metaphysical line of wood sculptures. Art website: mikesasaki.com
