About the Item
Erica Larkin Gaudet has been fabricating sculptural work for over 30 years. By forging, welding, applying patinas and leafing, she creates ethereal forms that oscillate between abstract and figurative sculptures. In her new series entitled Open Vessels, the works are created out of copper with surface finishes from metallic luster to matte aged patina.
Open Vessels
My new series of sculptures, Open Vessels, are hand forged copper abstracted forms inspired by elements of nature, human-nature interaction and in particular stages of growth. The abstracted vessels and underlying structures represent a metaphorical open container, symbolic of ones formed identity, the continual unfolding of human potential in the core of being and openness to what could be. –Erica Larkin Gaudet
“The only way that we can live, is if we grow. The only way that we can grow is if we change. The only way that we can change is if we learn. The only way we can learn is if we are exposed.” – C. JoyBell C.
After receiving her BA in Sculpture from Loyola University, Larkin Gaudet founded a metal studio specializing in large scale sculpture and custom furniture. Her work has been exhibited in galleries, museums, and public art spaces, such as The Sculpture for New Orleans / Poydras Corridor Public Art, The Joan Mitchell Foundation Public Art, Louisiana Presbytere Museum, Downtown St. Joseph, MO Sculpture Walk, Scope Basel (Switzerland), Hibernian Sculpture Park, and the Walter Anderson Museum of Art. Larkin Gaudet has taught metalworking and sculpting workshops both nationally and internationally.
