Ambit of Faith

“Ambit of Faith" is currently installed in Florida for Sculpture Key West 2010. The images below show different views of the piece. This piece is 9' tall and 6' long by 4' wide and made of steel, paper, fiberglass and resin.  The show is open through April 16, 2010
This sculpture was inspired in part by my experience installing Emancipate I in last year's Sculpture Key West show. I was terrified of heights yet found myself perched at least 20 feet in the air above the rocks on the ocean's end. Overcoming my fears, the sharp edges of the rocks became my daily visual reference.
 
I create my work based on the emotions and memories I experience in the course of my life and try and evoke those through the form, space and volume of my work. I titled this piece "Ambit of Faith" for me it is the boundary or edge of faith. As you move and walk around the piece it moves and changes. The different light throughout the day reflects on its surface bringing attention to the dynamics of the form.

Our lives are always changing, and so our our experiences, emotions, perceptions and responses. Sometimes all we have to hold onto is the confident belief that our inner truth will guide us along - even when there is no logical reasoning or evidence to support the journey.
