The sculpture
Motion
is one of the Motion Series of sculptures. It joins
other sculptures that include:
Embark,
Hansou,
Kai,
Kinpaku,
Mizushou,
Momentum,
Nami 2,
Oonami,
Precipice,
Skating,
Soushi,
Soushi2,
Ugokasu,
Ukei, and
Uzushio.
The
genesis of the sculpture Motion was two-fold. I
wanted a larger outdoor sculpture that would convey movement -
ceaseless, never-tiring movement. Motion was
conceived to represent a busy commercial district or busy commuters
using a rail station. Motion
is closely related to Kai,
Nami 2, and
Precipice.
About the
Motion Series
Movement is an unusual activity to catch in stone. Stone
Sculpture is noted for being solid, rooted to the ground, and
unchanging. Exploring unanticipated action is the common
feature of the
Motion Series. A sculpture caught in the act of
falling, another sculpture caught just before it is ready to leap
off its' base, another seemingly moving effortlessly across its'
base. All of these are displaying that elusive stone quality -
movement.
