About The Artwork

The first of the "Eggan" series, the name is as abstract as the sculpture. I chose a vague title to prevent it from influencing the experience of the person interacting with the form. The concept is to take the beautiful shape of an egg and manipulate the form as an exploration of motion, energy and transformation. For “Eggan No.1”, I decided on the finishing technique of combining sanding with knife cuts during the carving process, while I was getting to know the particular piece of wood. The wood used is air dried yellow cedar. It has a wonderfully tight grain and I feel very connected with the wood because I handled the drying process (outside, then inside). The surface has a wonderful feel to it. The sanded parts are soft and velvety while the knife cut areas are shiny and smooth. The aroma of the untreated and beautiful yellow cedar allows for a close connection with the nature of the piece.

Mike Sasaki was born in Toronto, Canada. He graduated from the Bachelor of Design Honours program at York University / Sheridan College in 2005. He lived in Tokyo, Japan for 5 years where he was immersed in traditional and modern Japanese culture. The martial arts philosophies have played an important role in his artistic development.
