Lot Essay

"You could argue that sculpture is a dramatization of the space between your eye and the world, between looking and recording, between that you see and feel and memory. I try to allow as much as possible to happen while I'm working on the piece and yet keep it contained within a single object. That seems to get the most truthful results." -- Thomas Houseago
