I am You Sculpture

"I am You" was inspired many years ago (Ok, in 2001) when I met a new friend. On that first day while we were talking, my friend did a simple gesture that I had never seen anyone but me do before and I felt an instant connection with this person. Because we are such social creatures, I think that moment of recognizing something familiar in another human being is one of the more beautiful things we can experience. I wanted to create an artwork that would depict the idea of connecting with a stranger. It is my hope that we will continue to seek out these wondrous occasions and keep an open mind each time we meet someone new. It could turn out to be a life-changing experience for you -- as it has been for me. This couple sculpture is a limited edition of 45. The bronze sculpture is mounted onto a dark wood base. Texas Mesquite is the wood shown on this bronze. I suspect this sculpture will appeal to lovers everywhere and might be a great gift idea for couples, but it is really intended as a tribute to powerful and surprising friendships.
