The nature of my work begins with it's inner soul, the naked
truth.
This soul creates a form in my head, I see it completely. Each front has a rear,
upper- and under-side, the whole has a centre of gravity and a balance. I do not
try to imitate externalities, I place myself inside the subject and out of that
arises an external. Hence that realism and cubism both exist in my creations.
Because my sculptures are adorned with contrast, it is able to bring it's true
sculptural properties to bear. I aspire to create a harmony of line and mass
between space and volume. It must embrace light and claim the neighboring space.
As soon as this process has taken place, the urge to create becomes
irresistible. The apparent chance, controlled by me, is what makes my work
succeeded or not. When I portray the human body, I don't only want it to be
anatomically correct but to show the movement of the muscles under the skin. My
surfaces must seem as if they have raised themselves from the inside out, into
existence.
Sculptures that react to their surroundings, can no longer exclusively be
considered as an object, they take on their surroundings and as a result are
more than the material space which they inhabit. In my creations this is
achieved by the polished bronze faces. Interaction between the onlooker and my
sculpture was my initial purpose, searching for a subtle confrontation. That has
however become a recognizable feature of my realistic animal and human
sculptures.
I create a duet between me and my medium, I want let the language of the wax
speak, entirely exploit the freedom it offers and let it be visible in my work.
A complete analysis of the materials used is essential for exploiting all the
possibilities that it has to offer my sculpture. Therefore knowing how to chaste
bronze and apply the chemical process of the patina (color) is equally
important. That a bronze sculpture is first modeled in wax then cast in bronze,
welded, grinded, chastened, sanded eventually colored makes it in my opinion the
most complete art form, because all these separate processes must become a
harmonious whole.
Even if a layman looks at an art piece then can he/she can taste (feel) that
it's not correct. Tracing this foul taste to the source is very important
because then you can introduce changes to eliminate the cause. As an artist you
must be able to make a critical analysis of your work, for that you need to take
the time and be prepared to make drastic changes, replace whole components or
leave them out, until the final result is no longer open to improvement. A piece
of art does not have be correct or preferably it should not be, it must however
have charisma, write it's own symphony without false notes.
