« At its most basic, my work is about storytelling. »
Erik Wolken is an experienced US sculptor whose works are held in national public collections. Trained as a furniture maker, his sculptures are most often composed with his preferred medium of wood. His pieces are abstract configurations of the human body rendered with expressive colors. He hopes that each work of art tells a new story to his audience.
