the rhythm of the text is like that of the curves.. a progeny written wave mirroring the sculpted progenitor creating a three dimensionally illuminated manuscript that you can walk around in the space of time to see it frozen in space or keep moving around as it melts into descriptions in time. Just gazing at the work as it inspires one's own maybe somewhat similar reflections is not the same as experiencing internally -- I insist on reading slowly enough to hear the words -- the sound of somebody else's very well chosen and sculpted words as they flow with the same grace as the sculpture's lines. This is so appropriate to the artist's making sculpture out of language as much as matter and revealing their possibly identical twin nature however separated at birth. thank you.
I’m super busy at the moment so I haven’t had time to finish your text but I loved the first sentence: “ Sculpture, like any object fashioned with the intention of realizing an ideal—from a building, to a dress, to an automobile—achieves its final effect with the tangent between essence and appearance.”

Well, thank you. It's nice to hear 'how' people like my writing. Visit my web page and look around. I've been active on here since 2021. Cheers, David
