    Steel Sculptures for this new year
    A group of sculptures based on the ideas and concepts of time ending and rebirth in the year 2012.
  • This is an interesting time were are in, we shall see what the future brings as time unfolds. This series is inspired by the concept of time ending and beginning inthe year MMXII. The abstract shapes create many different linesand shadows and can be looked at as just shapes. I have placedthese sculptures on the wall like the many paintings I’ve donebefore. I guess I’m used to that. Each sculpture is a symbol relatingto 2012. The shapes that I have chosen have been inspired by the many concepts for this new era. I find all the symbolism and ancient prophecies to be fascinating.

    My inspiration comes from the freedom and flow of dance and thecomposition and rhythm of music. Many musicians today speak ofcurrent events. I listened to these artists as i thought about andmade these pieces: Jay Z, Kanye West, Kendrick Lamar, and LupeFiasco to name a few. 

    Hopefully this artwork encourages individuals to think moreabout time and help them in how they decide to live their lives. Thistopic raises many questions and I hope everyone can make positivedecisions in order to be the best they can be with the time have hereon earth.
  • Angel 

    I have read the book of Revelation in the Bible with prophecies of the end times and the second coming of Christ.      That is why I created an angel, seven stars, and a trumpet.
  • Clock  
    View from head-on

    The clock, symbol of the mayan zero, and bottle represent the essence of time and what we do with it. Ancient Mayans had a huge celebration when they made it to the end of a whole cycle just like we do every new year.

  • Seven Stars

    The galactical alignment is a end date tied to astronomical phenomena that will happen when the stars align. This also relates to the stars like shapes and the Seven Stars.
  • Diamond

    The diamond/triangle shape hints at the idea of new world order and the illuminati.
