About this artwork
Sheldon continues his highly imaginative and creative sculptural works with "Medusa", inspired by aquatic creatures of the same name, though not a literal interpretation. The sculpture appears to defy gravity, hovering in air by its 'tentrils'. The play of form is created through improvisational use of positive and negative space.

« 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.
