The purpose of this creative project was to further the development of the artist's personal style. Also to produce an exhibition of sculpture that relate to each other through common themes and techniques. The exhibition would become a unique environment for the viewer.The artist used steel as a medium in the creation of his sculptures. Various types of steel where cut, forged, welded, and fabricated in order to produce and extend the vocabulary of the sculptures. Steel was used experimentally with line, texture, and bright color. The exhibited works were successful because they concentrated on abstract designs that resembled animal or personages with gestural and emotional content. The artist's exhibition displayed a direction of style that is distinctive. The style has a complexity within its asymmetrical design that simplifies gestural and emotional content. From this work the artist has drawn conclusions about found objects and constructivism. He will utilize this working knowledge in future projects. / Department of Art
