It Is A Mistake For A Sculptor

A Sculptor Is A Person Obsessed With The Form And The Shape Of Things, And It's Not Just Ihe Shape Of Any One Thing, But The Shape Of Any Thing And Everything.

Art Is Not To Do With The Practical Side Of Making A Living. It's To Live A Fuller Human Life.

Recently I Have Been Working In The Country, Where, Carving In The Open Air, I Find Sculpture More Natural Than In A London Studio, But It Needs Bigger Dimensions. A Large Piece Of Stone Or Wood Placed Almost Anywhere At Random In A Field, Orchard, Or Garden, Immediately Looks Right And Inspiring.

Art Is To Make Our Lives Richer And Fuller.

If An Artist Tries Consciously To Do Something To Others, It Is To Stretch Their Eyes, Their Thoughts, To Something They Would Not See Or Feel If The Artist Had Not Done It. To Do This, He Has To Stretch His Own First.
