| Description: |
It is important to understand that the
major feature of Shaker æsthetics
is that it enables the viewer
to understand form in terms of
space,
rather than odour.
An important part of this sculpture is the world of colour and space
contrasting strongly with
the impersonal forms and industrial colours so clearly visible.
The viewer is drawn by the
scale and openness
of the piece into
the world of images rich
in meaning and emotion.
A temporally
changing
network,
the outstanding aesthetic sensibility
of which
remains unchanged,
is always unrecognizably altered
by the mere presence
of the onlooker.
``The dialogue created by
the comination of textures, colours,
and dimensions evokes nature in
its pure, controlled, yet fanciful expression.
Sensorial expreiences and organic abstractions
represent man's drive for interpreting reality
and our mental processes.
In a seemingly chaotic world, the artist
struggles to find inner serenity
and to convey it in his work.
Each piece becomes
a unique instance of
wholeness within the
labyringht of life.''
[describing Alex Garcin, Untitled 2004]
