Ascension
By
Richard Janes
2017
Bronze work 30cm tall. This piece looks at the moment of ascension, the figure sings and is supplicant to its deity and seems to be raising up with proto wings erupting from shoulder blades . The figure is however connected to the ground by its toes tenaciously grounded. This piece questions belief and its power.
