Richard Serra |
Richard Serra chooses to work in steel and allows it to rust and transform. His artwork is larger than life, where you can walk along or enter into his sculptures (see picture). According to Kit White, "In all good work, the image and its medium are inseparable...The material and the image should be one. A Serra sculpture is the steel that makes it. And it finds its identity both as steel and sculpture without conflict. Your medium should be an expression of your image, and your image should arise from its medium." For me, at times I am only trying to master a medium, and it is the process that is more important than the resulting image. While at other times, I choose the medium based on how I want the image to look. Each medium is unique and will give certain effects, so choose wisely. Enjoy!
