Know Wonder.. Bronze Reader Series Sculpture

Reader Series Sculpting for me appropriately started with a book I picked up thirteen years ago on how to sculpt clay figures. Since then, there have been several experiments; mold making in Amman, armature building in Italy, metal cold casting at home, bronze sand-casting in Wihdat at a car-part casting foundry, and lastly in Wales to learn lost wax casting. As the sculptures evolved, the idea of attempting a human size sculpture became appealing. When a friend suggested making a sculpture of a reader, the idea quickly triggered memories of a childhood among books..Books that transported me to a different existence almost as real as life.. creating a KNOWledge of a reality far removed .. enriched by places and characters that feel alive..almost! The suggestion eventually became a series of ideas of different readers.. starting with ‘Getting to Know’ which also evolved into my first human size sculpture ‘Big Know’.
