| Description: |
The
embellished
figure
belies
the essential distinction between pattern and texture.
Such forms, both serene and tranquil, create disarmingly intenste sensations.
The
layers of approaching
curves
are
intertwined
in a tribute to
celebration.
An interesting side of this sculpture is the dominant angularity and horizontality
contrasting strongly with
the emphatically factual experience of
form and space to indicate the essential contrast between pattern and texture.
