Taihei 1
is one of the
Tranquil Series of Sculptures. It joins
other sculptures that include:
Cherish,
Embrace,
Kanryuu, Ptolmey1,
Ookawa,
Secure, Stillness,
and
Taihei 2.
Taihei 1
is a restful sculpture. Taihei 1
slowly emerges from it's base and slowly evolves to its bulbous top.
Then back down again on its stippled back. It is a mirror
image of Taihei 2.
Stylistically,
Taihei 1 and
Taihei 2
can "bookend"
two sides of an opening to make a
indicate that you are entering a quiet room that is a retreat.
About the
Tranquil Series
The series,
Motion,
Striving,
&
Music
are about the ability of
stone to move or be in motion. The
Tranquil Series
is just the
opposite - it is the ability to be still or quiet. These
sculptures are quiet but joyous works that do not have to shout to
gain attention. They exist. They just are.
