About this artwork
"Cascade" is created with .25" thick, stainless steel which will withstand outdoor elements without rusting. Many parts have been polished to a mirror-finish, making this an exquisite piece for any upscale home or garden. The attached base is made of mild steel, which has a striking, rust patina, creating a compelling, beautiful contrast with the stainless steel sculpture. David Sheldon's sculpture is a play between positive and negative space, between…
‘being’ and ‘non-being. Rather than completed forms (or gestalts), it’s about the infinite possibilities of form…where empty space and possible forms converge. So, Sheldon's sculptural works are more like an expressed ‘convergence point’ in space, than a fully realized object. He states that some innate, subconscious sense of beauty in him creates an order within the ‘chaos’ of energized forces. A sort of ‘spatial music’ results - a never-ending dance of form within the Void.

« My goals in art-making are exploring the nature of who I am, and my relationship to the world. »
At age nine, American painter and sculptor David Sheldon was hospital bound after a major operation and was given his first oil-painting kit- he hasn't stopped making art since. The theme of Sheldon's sculpture work revolves around the question, "Who am I, and what is my relationship to the Infinite?" Regarding his paintings, Sheldon works intuitively, and likes to constantly question his methods. Sheldon't futuristic steel sculptures and abstract expressionist oil paintings are fluid, bright, and intriguing.
