‘The work’s curvilinear organic shape with an open center echoes modernist sculptures by Hans Arp and Henry Moore. Based on a small soapstone sculpture his mother purchased on a visit to Africa, Harmony is absurdly but intentionally overwrought. He has transformed a humble object into a grandiose sculptural statement made with expensive and precious materials. Cast in solid bronze... the bronze has the semblance of a modest artificial material such as resin or fibreglass. Many hours of polishing... have caused the bronze to have the look of molded plastic, and the many layers of sprayed black car enamel covering the bronze further heighten the luster’
(D. Ebony, ‘Anselm Reyle’, in Art in America, April 2011).
