Wood Sculptures By Mike Medow |
|
Mike Medow is awestruck by the magnificent land formations of the West and those forms are echoed in the full and robust figures. The human forms reflect the hills and valleys of the Southwest landscape, which he calls "figurescapes." This self-taught artist deals with symmetries and shifting centers as if he had written a master thesis on the subject. From an innate sensitivity and intuition come the subtleties within Medow's compositions. The fact that Medow is a direct carver is quite significant, in that sculpture is as much a tactual art form as it is visual. The carver, more than any other sculptor, uses his chisel as a sense organ while creating his work. Rarely does Medow use a power tool. He is constantly touching and feeling the sculpture's surface to decide how and where to proceed. As a result, it will always be the carver who encourages the viewer to touch.
