About
In his sculptures, artist Larry Morris juxtaposes a freeze-framed moment of order in Park Bench with the energetic race of Bicyclist. Morris works primarily in steel using angular shapes, particularly the pyramid, as a figurative form. His art has evolved into whimsical representations of life in a geometric format, containing multiple levels of meaning as well as distilled energy or movement. Park Bench uses floating rectangles to capture, in the midst of chaos, a freeze framed moment of order. The Bicyclist rides on inverted (female) and right side up (male) triangles achieving a perfect balance.
