"Sora"
In Japanese "Sora" can translate as Void, Sky or Heaven. Representing a space that's beyond our everyday experience; a space of energy and movement beyond our physical realm.
The name seemed fitting to me, for the vision I had when sculpting her was one of dancing shadows. I saw myself standing at the edge of a pond, staring down into its dark waters watching the shadows of the trees dancing above me from the wind.
"Sora" is a sculpture of simplicity and abstraction; a dramatic silence that represents life, energy and the stillness in the void.
