About the Item
The Spirit Phantom. Defined as “an individual's true inner self” referring to “the unconscious mind” or “the undiscovered self” in the analytic psychology of Carl Jung. It can also “reflects archetypal ideals of conduct: referring to an inner feminine part of the male personality” as opposed to the persona, or outer aspect of the personality. In Latin, Spanish and Italian “anima” refers to the soul or spirit.

From the artist:
"In the Spirit collection, the Phantoms I create continue the exploration of 'body and soul' as my artwork expands into 'an interior' that is filled with myriad of ideas.
These concern our changing intellect and are formed as a result of our expanding consciousness, our spiritual inclinations and evolving sense of soul.
This work emphasizes how our awareness and connection to our internal selves is beginning to have an affect on the world.
We are understanding a great deal more about ourselves and continue to develop our various intelligences; emotional, inter and intra personal, as well as pluralistic and spiritual.
I think that this is where our cultures and societies will meet with the integration of science, religion, imagination and consciousness. This is the internal landscape of which I speak in this work."
ARTIST STATEMENT:
"The beauty, grace and symmetry of traditional figurative sculpture has always called to me. It is my school and my obsession. My language is the figure and I feel the need to comment on the human condition, sometimes distorted by demons, and other times enchanted by all that is pure within us.
I have renewed my relationship to the human form. It has undergone a metamorphosis from silent conformity, where the rules and proportions are tantamount to a partial figure where the human condition becomes of primary importance. I want to stretch the canons of classical realism by giving beauty another voice that challenges socio-political norms. I speak of spirit and courage, of heritage and of imperishable strength.
Today I challenge the traditional figure, creating a characterization of the Spirit; a metaphor to our inner world that might encourage us to seek a deeper understanding of ourselves. Consciousness, as a philosophical concept, can lead us many places, from the empirical world of the cognitive sciences to a theoretical one, where psychology attempts to provide the answers. It is my intention to reach into the 21st. century using sculpture to transcend disciplinary boundaries between the physical bodies in bronze and the self-knowledge and understanding of the ethereal realm that is our internal landscape."
