   Sculpture Description

Seemingly primitive animal instincts lurk in our own depths, waiting for the chance to emerge in a conscious moment. The sculptures focus on human psychology, and articulate through animal and human forms. On the surface, the figures show themselves to be wild or well-behaved and hover in a moment of tension. Below the surface, they embody the consequences of human fear, apathy, aggression and misunderstandings that they want to leave behind. The things that we leave unspoken are far more important than the words that are spoken out loud to one another. It means to read meaning in the more subtle signs; a look, the way you hold your hands, the tilt of your head, and the slightest unconscious gesture.
