Passing By (2016)Bronze sculpture
by Philip Hearsey

Looking for inspiration is rarely successful; it appears, and sometimes in the most unlikely places. This sculpture did have just such a beginning but the origin is barely apparent in the finished work.
There is no immediate comprehension; it is not pegged to any particular connotation. The viewer will add their own interpretation and the more time spent in front of the sculpture is rewarded by myriad possibilities and interpretations.
One of the pleasures of small sculpture is that it can easily be moved around, to refresh both the perception of the viewer and the surroundings it occupies.
Cast in solid bronze, it rotates on an eroded granite pebble sitting on a Herefordshire burr oak base. The bronze part of the sculpture is highly textured and finished in a vibrant blue, removed to expose natural bronze on some edges.
