Richard Fox Art
b. 1965
Working to drawings and sketches, Fox brings the flow of his pencil lines to life, with the form and void of each sculpture giving them a natural rhythm.
In his wooden works, Fox shows unique skill in creation using sycamore and natural pigment, each sculpture twisted and turned, sanded and varnished to withstand temperature variation and moisture changes. Using techniques derived from those of boat-builders, Fox crafts timber into intricate forms inspired by musical scores, for example Ravel. Each section is bonded to make the visually delicate structure remarkably resilient. Works are then fixed to a sandstone base using a stainless steel pin and shaft which allows them to rotated for different angles of viewing.
"The sculptures take time to make. I visualise a space, a void, and sketch a shape to fill it. This is to describe the process in its simplest way. In the act of sketching, I am trying to achieve a form that works as a whole. The combinations of material and shape in both the sculpture and space within the curves. The making of the sculpture from this point becomes very exacting and involves intense concentration. Working out exact angles, twists and curves, there is very little room for error. Then, the sculpting begins, using a variety of tools and skills that have been developed over the years... There are a lot of processes in making the sculpture and all of them have taken time to evolve.
I think some of the most satisfying times for me include the point at which I am by myself, in the studio, and having completed a work, I place it on the plinth. There is a sense of us having been on a long journey that is now at an end. I am looking at something that did not exist before this moment. It is looked at for the first time, with all that involves."to

Located in Glen Ellen, CA

Pisapia's "Expedition Series," inspired by sea voyages, is about meeting life’s challenges with courage and purpose. It connects to the idea expressed by J.W. Goethe: “Character is formed in the stormy billows of the world.” Taking up life’s tasks can require one to go against the wind. The feeling of determination to achieve and continue steering through obstacles is poured into the pure forms; a dynamic balancing of the straight and curve on different axes. "With a rounded starting point," Pisapia explains, "I add on a variety of disparate angles, diverse curves, and twisting planes. I carve and smooth the surfaces, bringing out particular tensions and transitions."
Flavius Valone Pisapia is an Italian-Romanian artist born in Bucharest in 1981. He completed his higher education in the UK, with an MA in Transpersonal Arts & Therapy, 2014; a Diploma in Transformative Arts, 2011; and a BA (Hons) in Film and Video, 2005. Pisapia studied sculpture throughout his higher education and appreciated several sculptor mentors in the UK. Since 2016, he has resided in India, where he is currently an artist in residence at Studio Sukriti in Jaipur. He has had several solo exhibitions in India and his artwork is found in private collections worldwide.
"It's important for me to experience the world at a deeper level by penetrating the veil of the senses. Through an immersive process the essence, beauty and the pure form of an idea are gradually revealed to me. The emerging awareness flows into my artwork imbuing it with a higher reality. To achieve this awareness in my creative process, I go through three stages: imagination, inspiration and intuition." - Flavius Pisapia
