Artist Statement for Jd Adcox

J.D. Adcox Artist’s Statement
There is ‘Life’ within a stone. My challenge, as a sculptor, is to release the life that already exists, and not attempt to create one…this is the essence of sculpture as I perceive it. This ‘life’, is one of beauty. If what I produce is not beautiful, I have failed to release the essence within, and rather, have inserted my ego
If it were possible to sum up the essence of my sculpture in one word, that word would be “flowing”. A flowing of peacefulness, a quality that is not only stimulating to the mind but one that must be touched and recorded physically as well. Ribbons of stone capture the essence of motion by curving through space and themselves in a continuous strip or ending in a way that allows the eye of the viewer to continue to a higher plane – physical or mental.
Many of my pieces are reflections of my belief that everything within the universe follows the cycle of Birth, Growth, Maturity, Death and Rebirth. Understanding this concept brings peace within – and hopefully is imparted to those that share my art.
