About this artwork
Originally carved from a scrap cleaved off of a large block of Carrara Marble, this ‘sailboat’ like shape was an experiment to see how thin I could get the marble. The “sail” part in stone was translucent. I never meant it to look like a boat, it just came out that way. In art, a patina is the controlled oxidation of the surface of a metal through chemical reaction.

« 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.
