Biographical Information
  • It is my intentions with this sculpture to present a multi-faceted work suggesting numerous relationships. There are those between the larger figure, which at once suggests in itself the past and the contemporary, and the several smaller figures with their interdependence. And there is the desire to seek out and explore with unsureness in the smaller figures which clearly gain confidence and security from each other and the adult figure. In essence, I have attempted to suggest a relationship of education and guidance in seeking new horizons. (Eckland, 1982)
