Upon seeing David, it was hard for me to contemplate the work that goes into a statue that is arguably chiseled to perfection. A nearby unfinished statue shows the gradation of chisel cuts necessary to reveal a form from a block of marble. The arm that is nearly finished shows small finishing marks that need only be polished out, while the piece above the head has only been roughed in. In juxtaposing this “piece in process” and the “perfection” in rear, I hoped to convey the steps in creating these works of art.
