Bone Form VI is the latest sculpture in my Bone Form series and, like the others, was inspired by the shape of a piece of bone.

In this piece, I could see the suggestion of a dancing figure, and I wanted to develop that idea while retaining the character and simplicity of the original bone.

The bronze has a sense of movement and energy. From some angles the figure is more apparent, while from others the natural bone form becomes more prominent. I like this changing relationship between the abstract and the figurative.

For me this work is a celebration of the spirit that moves us even when reduced to our bare essentials.
