About "Mother and Child"
This sculpture was inspired by Pablo Picasso’s famous painting called Mother and child, 1921. I have transformed the pictural idea into a gestural sculpture which captures the energy of the dynamic relationship between a child and its mother.
My gestural sculptures are modeled in clay or plastersine, which allow for free flowing expression, stopping at a precise moment in time that best holds the feeling being expressed. The images come from the essence of dance, the moments between balance, where we are neither here nor there, like moving mirages. Thus the work explores this rhythm of life, the dichotomy of the opposites, which interplay in our lives, the dance between dark and light, past and present, movement and stillness… This is the feminine rhythm, found in nature, and often forgotten by our culture that seeks to control, separate and judge. The work (which is one of natures most permanent mediums, bronze) shows the chaos of creativity stilled in a moment to serve as a reminder of our transient presence.
