It can be as simple as thinking, "I like that", or a deeper connection built upon a past experience you've had. No matter what way art impacts you, taking time to breathe it in is gratifying. It decreases stress, heightens focus, and spurs your own creativity. So what does 'living sculpture' mean to us? It means that each and every work of art created in our studio is pressed, prodded, and feathered until it achieves a special trait, one we describe as a sculpture that can 'breathe on its own'. The studio of Mardie Rees is committed to creating works that are not only beautiful, but meaningful. We invite you to take a breath, browse our galleries (http://mardierees.us9.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=8769202a51511020a32aee21a&id=da9c1c8b78&e=040427f1da) and discover what 'living sculpture' means to you. http://mardierees.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=8769202a51511020a32aee21a&id=4c860118cc&e=040427f1da ** Have you watched it yet? ------------------------------------------------------------ Last year we produced a video on Mardie's inspiration and philosophy, but haven't told you about it until now!
