About the Item
The title, Cscape, is a contraction of “cultural landscape” which is how I think of these works.
This piece was one of the first exhibitable examples of a sculptural process I developed and pursued for approximately five years from 2015-2020.
I had become envious of collage artists. The spontaneity of their compositions coupled with the specificity of the design elements, often images of real-world things, stood in stark contrast to what most sculptors could do. Shaping and transforming actual material is so time-consuming and expensive that sculptors are often drawn to ‘over-work’ a piece. Ensuring it is absolutely perfect before going into the foundry, for instance, can mean the spontaneity is leached out of a piece, or that compositions are safe when in fact more risks should be taken.
Finally, blending ground Carrara marble with my super-hard plasters helps the pieces refract light the way sculpted marble does, and alludes to fixing our own cultural icons in the exact material which civilizations have used for millennia to immortalize their apex achievements for posterity.
