| "Though the
piece is not about my aversion to bridges. I have noticed
that religions love the image of a bridge; a bridge has a
starting point and end point and avoids the water totally.
It wouldn’t take long to find numerous examples of this. Artists and passions love diving boards; once you leap the outcome is entirely uncertain, but that’s passion and creativity for you. The dogs in my pieces are rather enigmatic to me and not as obvious as a suitcase symbolically. This dog is not caught up in the man’s passion and does not seem to trust the end of the board. This is much the same as in my other sculptures where dogs just aren’t playing along with the humans they are with." |
