Abstract

There are three observations that I would make about my work. First of all, and above all, I'm a sculptor, my most important concern is to get all the forms to look right. I try to eliminate faulty distortions and areas that look too flat, and those that do not register properly to my eye. Then, there is the matter of impact. I use models, oftentimes to get a maximum impact with the work, who are physically large and (to me) very sculptural, the third is one of communicating, this often takes care of itself. I express my feelings of empathy and sympathy for the subjects I portray through their weariness and despair. Duane Hanson
