Hopes and dreams.

Birds in flight and Hopes and dreams.

These two sculptures came out of a vivid image I had whilst making the three peices shown below. It was an image of all my hopes and dreams being sent out like arrows or paper aeroplanes into the air, like little prayers we say that we hope will be heard by God. The internal narrative we have that we very rarely share.

Relationship. Three individual small scale sculptures.

Stages

Starting with paper templates ,I’m developing new designs, inspired by artist Rachel Reckitt whom I knew as a child, she captured form so very well. My particular interest is in her use of angles and her honest application. Also the poised Heron, inspired by my autistic son who loves bird watching. Next stage will be annealing and forming…. more to follow.
