My sculptures and paintings use organic forms and surfaces as a counterpoint
to more precise processes and components. In my paintings, colors and
exacting compositions structure an organic subsurface. The "collage
canvases" are free form in spirit and use assorted materials to create a
colorful and textural sketch for the paintings. The textures and materials
of the canvas are an integral part of the process and of the final painted
surface and subject.
In my sculptures, tooled elements define and present an organic core. The
natural core form is refined as needed and the supporting elements are
shaped using power and hand tools. Natural elements and characteristics
within each element are preserved to help sketch its form and preserve its
character. Different types of wood are often mixed within one sculpture in
the spirit of the randomness of life and creativity. (Eric Akcevak)
