Stephen Wolff Sculpture
"A Moment"
This piece is Called "A Moment" it represents one of those moments in life when something unexpected happens, unexpected and heart warming. This rancher paused for a moment to rub his aching neck and a bird lands on his hand, its a moment in life that is unique and special and we all have them or at least I hope we all do. A moment that brings a moment of magic into our lives, joyful and still trying not to have the moment leave.
"Lovers"
Stephen Wolff works to create sculpture that captures moments which touch or represent elements in our lives that define us or represent a metaphor for the purpose of reflection. This piece, "A Moment", represents a rare connection between a farmer and a bird. Sweaty and hot, the farmer pauses, a bird lands on his hand; he is entranced by "a moment" that will never happen again. Other pieces, such as "Maker", represent man forging man or man forging himself, a metaphor for how we shape ourselves and each other through our thoughts, actions and intentions. Then there is "Grief's Passion" which embodies grief captured and how going inward and holding oneself during moments of internal pain is also coming into deeper contact with oneself while grieving for a loss. As with all works, it is ultimately the viewer who decides what a piece might mean to them. I only throw my spin on it because I created it; but as with with most things in life, when one gives birth to a creation, be it children or art, those creations do take on a life of their own and grow as they will. We, the creators, just shape them the best we can and allow them to grow their own wings so they can then fly.
