Bronze is unique. There is no other material I have found which is so soft, yet so strong. So lasting, and grows colorfully rich with age. It has an amazing history dating back to 2500 BCE. To be among the artists who works in bronze –becoming a brother and sister of many, among such an extended time line – is truly profound.
For the Expansion sculpture, we cast each piece in bronze and assemble the pieces so they float apart from one another. Inside the bronze we have created an innovative and unique lighting system to make the sculpture glow from within. It turned out even better than I conceived. And the most rewarding part is that the image of “Expansion” means so much to everyone who sees it.
