People trying to be plants

What is a sculpture?

I would argue it is a physical experience through and of volume. When making a sculpture a transformation takes place. A material is formed in a certain way , so it creates a sensual reaction within the beholder. Traditionally sculpture are objects. For the Secret Garden project in London I asked people to imagine themselves into being plants. To transform into an object that is in its appearance for us still. Appears like a sculpture. In this project the material that is sculpted is identical with the sculptor. An investigation into the relationship between mind and matter.
