For over 30 years, sculptor Sherry Owens has used the sinewy crepe myrtle tree to tell her story of the Texas landscape, death, renewal, beauty, and of today’s growing environmental concerns. Remnants of personal stories, visions and observations in nature are the driving forces in her work. She believes that what we see and do in our daily lives leaves a mark on our planet. It is the direct impact of human activities on the natural world, which is visualized in her artistic practice. She creates connections with nature using crepe myrtle trees found along the side of the road. Each stick is hand-carved and cut to fit, then laid in place and secured with a small myrtle peg. What takes precedence in the laborious process is the importance of detail and evidence of the artist’s hand and her interaction with the materials.
Sherry Owens is a native Texan, currently living and working in Dallas, TX. She received a BFA from Southern Methodist University. Recent Texas solo exhibitions include The Grace Museum; Cris Worley Fine Arts; Martin Museum of Art; Art Museum of Southeast Texas; and a two-person site-specific installation at the Umlauf Sculpture Garden & Museum. She was also included in recent exhibitions at the Amon Carter Museum of American Art, TX and the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, LA. She has exhibited internationally in Austria, Denmark, Germany, Greece, India, Japan, Peru, and Turkey. Her work is currently on view in the Ground Zero 360 Remembrance Exhibition at the Museum of Biblical Art...

Eclat de Pier-original female figure abstract bronze artwork-contemporary Art
By Nicola Godden
Located in London, Chelsea
Bronze, Limited Edition 2 of 9
"Eclat de Pierre" by Nicola Godden is a captivating original figurative bronze sculpture that captivates viewers with its graceful elegance and dynamic presence. Crafted with precision and finesse, this piece showcases Godden's mastery of form and her ability to convey emotion through abstract expression.
At the heart of the sculpture stands an abstract female figure, its form exuding a sense of fluidity and movement. The curves and contours of the figure suggest both strength and vulnerability, while the rich earth tones of the bronze add warmth and depth to its surface.
Perched atop a square steel base, the sculpture appears to float effortlessly, defying gravity with its weightless presence. The juxtaposition of the organic forms of the figure against the geometric lines of the base creates a visually striking contrast.
The medium of bronze lends a tactile quality to the sculpture, inviting viewers to explore its surface and appreciate its intricate details. Each curve and angle is meticulously rendered, from the delicate features of the figure's face to the flowing lines of its limbs.
"Eclat de Pierre" is a testament to Godden's skill and creativity as an artist. Whether displayed in a gallery or as a centerpiece in a private collection, this sculpture invites viewers to contemplate the beauty and complexity of the human form, while also serving as a reminder of the enduring power of artistic expression.

A Mere Few Years

Located in Philadelphia, PA
Resin cast geodes in cracked marble in a wooden frame by Paige Smith. This piece measures 18in x 18in, with a depth of 1-5/8in.
Paige Smith AKA A Common Name, is a multi-disciplinary artist and designer who lives and works in Los Angeles, CA. Smith is most notable for creating “Urban Geode,” a street art series of sculptures that resemble geodes, made entirely of paper and resin casts. Always interested in geology, Smith started to notice the nooks and crannies in the sides of buildings, walls, and abandoned phone booths within her community of the Historical Arts District (in Los Angeles). Seeing this as an opportunity to create, Smith took street-art to a whole new level.
Since beginning the project, she has created large-scale installations for well-known brands such as The Standard, Hollywood; The Viper Room...

By Viktor Mitic

An imposing fourteen-foot tower of curved abstract shapes is fabricated from stainless steel in this new sculpture from Viktor Mitic.
