SANFORD BOND

Artist Statement

PLACE = SPACE + MATERIAL

My career has focused on creating places by defining space with various materials. Primarily as an architect, I focus on places for human habitation using a palette of different materials to define discreet regions of space accommodating various human endeavors. Every material possesses a unique set of characteristics rendering it different from any other. These innate qualities may be used to generate unique and different places enabling a range of use and meaning differing with the person.

The materials of my sculpture are common industrial materials: structural steel, glass, wood, plexiglas or concrete. I exploit the unique characteristics of each medium in the work which lends an appropriateness and timeless quality to them.

Each work is a spatial exploration done in the abstract rather than focused on particular uses. As analogs to reality, they have no actual scale rather the viewer supplies his own perception of the reality within the piece. By intensifying definition, place is suggested subject to the experience of the viewer. At once they are cities of tall buildings, verdant forests or points of land in the sea and one may wander through depending on one’s feeling at the time and limited only by the imagination.
