About this artwork
This piece, carved in Italian “Ordinario” marble, reminded him of the whistling or rushing sound made by the wind across the sea. It also has the feeling of a wave motion when it crests. In Carrara Italy, even “Ordinario” marble is prized for its pure white properties. The base is made from the core T Barny drilled out of the block. When I can, I try to make the base match the stone of the sculpture.

« I aspire to create sculpture that is pleasing to sight and touch. With all the tragedy in the world I would like to give people joy, hope and beauty. »
T. Barny is a nationally-distinguished sculptor from the United States. Working with various kinds of stone, Barny creates fluid, organic figures. Much like a Mobius Strip, his sculptures almost universally incorporate one, continuous edge. Barny's artworks place the beauty of his medium-polished, fine stone-at center stage, inviting the viewer to enjoy the work visually as well as through touch.
