Statement When I look at a natural
creation, be it a bone, shell or tree, I am struck by the anomalies
and variations found in an object that appears symmetrical at first
glance. The perfection that life aspires to is forced to adapt into
a more irregular and complex form when it encounters an indifferent
environment. Yet the ideal still lies just below the surface. It
is a whisper only our mind can hear. My sculpture, "Growing
Victory," is inspired by this conflict between an ideal state
and an imperfect reality. In it can be found both the chaos of growth
and the geometry of perfection. Sam Spiczka |
