Since the early 1980s, I have worked with natural form, predominately large stone elements of rounded organic shape. Originally, I used these forms in combination with man-made steel structures; now I use the stones on their own, stacked or floating in space. The rough granite sculptures reference underwater landscapes that have � l been formed by the ocean's chaotic currents. Each grenite element is " pulled from the earth, the shimme�of its pitted surface revealing its geologic evolution. There is a sense of coilaboration with nature, where the physical characteristics of each stone determine its relationship to the next. I find the process of building these sculptures to be very instinctive and exciting, without preconceived notions of arrangement or structure. The work from the Cantamar series evokes a feeling of serenity. Smooth, water-worn stones are suspended in gravity defying weightlessness, denying their identity, and creating compiex, cantilevered projections that appear to float like clouds. 1 gather these stones at low tide in coastal Mexico, where their shapes and textures have been formed by the Pacific Ocean. I constantly feel compelled to contemplate the balance and tension, calm and energy that coexist in this body of work. � ;) Woods Davy, 3/8/08
