even though my father worked with wood all his life, it was Finland that really opened my eyes to this material - it was the "kelo",* which opened my eyes to the possibilities for my way of constructing sculptures from the most elementary shapes - other kelo sculptures can be found on his official sculpture site *Kelo-wood is a standing dead tree, usually pine. The Kelo-pines in the Arctic climate zone have a silver-gray patina on the surface, and the heartwood is red. The darker the heartwood, the further north the pine has grown. for my site specific sculpture visit my site www.denarend.com - sculptor |
