Dolce Gaia - Public Sculptures

$ On Inquiry

Dolce Gaia is a two part sculpture integrated into a new landscape design for a residence in Medicine Lake, MN. As a collaboration with Molly Barrett, we worked closely with the clients to create a central piece of stainless steel and natural granite in the midst of natural Minnesota greenery. The design process involved several rounds and at least two different models to come up with the ultimate piece. The second part of the sculpture also included stainless steel and stone, but had an additional functional requirement: A railing. The following summer we were engaged to create a complimentary water feature titled Agua Dolce. We can’t say enough about how enjoyable it was to work with this wonderful couple.

Sculpture is my thing. I appreciate all forms of art but working in three dimensions appeals to me in so many ways. I have gravitated to public art. It’s really the ultimate showcase for my work -- it’s out there for all the world to see and love or not.

My specific focus is on welded steel, copper, brass and aluminum. I often combine that with stone, wood and now also ceramic and glass. Depending on the preference of the piece, I will go with natural patinas but also seriously love color. I’ve always been fascinated with the East and have chosen to experiment with techniques and concepts originating there, such as wabi-sabi. For me, wabi-sabi is the acceptance of beauty infused by the imperfection as a reflection of our lives and loves.
