About the art
Artist statement
This small series originated from the possibility to work quietly, in a small format. Using all kinds of residual pieces of bluestone that were still in my studio. The stroke of the small pointed chisel is visible in the skin. Part of the stone has been polished to a glossy black for contrast.
I started with a simple basic shape. The difference in size, ensures that different shapes are created. The repetition makes it a whole. For me this sculpture radiates tranquility, hence the title.
You can creatie your own setup, depending on place and situation. The heigth of this sculpture is 30 cm (highest part).
This sculpture is also suitable for outdoors, then the polished parts will loose shine.
