Andrew Rogers We are

We are all individuals possessing the sanctity of a singular life and the ability to express ourselves. At the same time we an integral part of the society within which we live.

My work We are is a metaphor for that relationship with the organic, rippling and pulsating; ribbed and undulating outer surfaces acting as a counterpoint to the delicate, highly polished interior world of our thoughts. These individual figurative forms come together as a close community, yet it is always to be remembered that it is the individual that makes our world a place of justice and compassion.

Bronze is a material weighted in the history of art but used in this installation in a light, contemporary manner.
