Ugokasu from its' inception always seemed to want to be upright
on his narrow foot. Ugokasu is just getting into
gear to go somewhere - someplace fun. He embodies the happiness
and freedom associated with freedom from care.
Ugokasu is
closely related to
Embark,
Oonami,
Hansou,
Skating
and
Triptych.
All six deal with happy, effortless movement over a slick surface.
About the
Motion Series
Movement is an unusual activity to catch in stone. Stone
Sculpture is noted for being solid, rooted to the ground, and
unchanging. Exploring unanticipated action is the common
feature of the
Motion Series.
A sculpture caught in the act of
falling, another sculpture caught just before it is ready to leap
off its' base, another seemingly moving effortlessly across its'
base. All of these are displaying that elusive stone quality -
movement.
