ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The enigma of a work of art emanates from its materiality. The extraordinary object is one which is subjectively and tyrannically there. It cannot be ignored, and this charged quality is what a thing must have to be sculpture. Its thingness lures us into the hope that we will be shown something that expands the limits of our understanding of logic and reason. This thingness of a work of art, our perception and intellect responding to a physicality rich in mystery, is permeated by the awareness that there are things we don’t understand but can empathize with.
