![Acanto I [B] by Philip Hearsey, Sculpture for Sale on Singulart](https://www.singulart.com/images/artworks/v2/cutout/3845/main/base/1079091_ea754096a893b89e9aaeae6849a1ac33.png)
The time spent in front of Breakthrough is rewarded by myriad possibilities and interpretations. Shape, texture and colour have expressive qualities that often open thoughts lying dormant in the subconscious. The onlooker adds their own stories to complete the work..
The sculpture is a combination of control and chance. There is strict control over the outer circle but control inside is only partial. Everything inside is the result of controlled… guidance, largely haphazard and random, determined by the bronze itself. It is a joy for pareidoliacs.
Sand-casting is quite different from the lost wax technique more commonly used for sculpture – using a pattern that is deliberately very thin in places there is no telling where the bronze will fail to run and create intriguing shapes. Collaboration with chance is a fascinating process that produces delightful outcomes.
The bronze ring turns freely on a Cumbrian slate base, allowing eithewr face or any angle to be chosen.

Philip Hearsey
United Kingdom
« Inspired by events of the natural world, I put all of myself into making sculptures which I hope strike a chord and evoke emotion in those who encounter them. »
Philip Hearsey is an experienced British sculptor who has exhibited his work throughout the UK. Rather than engaging in specific theories, he is driven by an instinctive urge to progress at his own pace and focus on making things. He turns observations and visualizations into 3-dimensional realities, harnessing his specialty in sandcasting to make sculptures that engage the quality of bronze as a noble material in its own right. Hearsey's pieces showcase smart simplicity, intriguing shapes and a tactile touch.
