● Sculpture in Celebration of Self, Relationship and Community
.
DESIGN GOALS
.
Conversations to enliven the spirit and nudge your thinking
about possibilities
for you and your life and for those around you.
Goal
is to create visual anchors to a possitive spirit - a spirit that
celebrates us as people in all our forms - as self, as our
relationships and as us in community.
Bringing
oneness or unity to dieverse elements through the form of the letter O
and the number one - the circle & single stroke
.
Formal devices for Unity - the circle, the singular linear line, strructure
Unity with a Circle - a form with no beginning and no ending - evey point is equally distant from the center - a mandala
Unity throught a single stroke in space - a strong single vertical line - a totem
Structure as a unifying device
Levels of Abstraction - Embrace (Vigeland, Brancusi, Michel)
