INTROSPECTION

Bronze 2004

H 48'' x W 8'' x D 15''

or 26’’ edition

During this intimate moment of solitude, the subject peers inside himself to discover answers previously thought only to be found on the outside. The pose displays the child-like curiosity and awkwardness of this stage of the search. There is a gentleness of movement and a comforting sense of wonder in focusing on what is least-often observed. Introspection serves as the nucleus of the journey that is depicted in the artist’s collection. This piece embodies the initiation of a shift in consciousness. Contrary to the other figures in the collection that use the symbolism of keys, Introspection suggests that the answers lie within
