I saw the angel
in the marble
and carved until
I set her free.
Michaelangelo
Is that not beautiful?

I have had this thought about sculptors ‘releasing’ their works from the stone before. I once talked of it to my partner DC. He commented that he did not think it so – the work is not in there awaiting release. Which is true; it is actually in the sculptor awaiting release through into the stone. Interesting.

It is indeed and is the very reason I find making sculpture so satisfying.
