his own boundaries of form rather than having them
imposed upon him by the size and shape of a stone. By casting and finishing
his own pieces, Veevers-Carter has acquired a deep understanding of the
craftsmanship required to invigorate the material, lend depth to his
sculpture and illuminate his artistic expression. For Veevers-Carter,
working in bronze has become the perfect marriage of inspiration and craft.
Veevers-Carter’s original body of work stems from his desire to capture the
essence of unspoken emotion and pulls freely from the religious, literary
and artistic movements of the Greco-Roman, medieval, and renaissance
periods. His most recent body of work explores movement and detail in
nature. He is drawn into the magnificence locked in seemingly simple aspects
of life; an insects exoskeleton, the stillness of a ancient tree, or the
smoothness of the skin of an animal.
