- Just the nearness of you -

Kunstneren fortæller:
"I wanted to sculpt a young couple, finding romantic love ? the butterflies and uncertainty, the chemistry and electricity ? discovered when you?re in each other?s presence. I wanted the piece to be tender and intimate, elegant and quiet? Since the pose is derived from dance, I also wanted it to appear to have movement as you look at different angles.
"My challenge was to carve completely in the round, so that from every view, you have a different understanding? you see variations. There?s no correct way to position the piece.
"There are three touch points ? their fingers on both hands, and the tops of their heads. I like this bit of connection? the tingly excitement and shared energy that comes from moments together with a new love."
