Dave Kinsey Public Art Outdoor Sculpture

WIP - In Situ Conceptualization 2023

 

“As I begin each new sculpture I’m constantly engaged within the notion of architecture, technology, the natural world, humanity—together these components give a relational characteristic to each piece. My sculptures are etherial yet brutal structures that utilize light, material and apposing forms to create a visual spacial tension.

I like to believe that sculptures, within the public space, become an art of the people. A sculptures palpability is enhanced by our ability to see, touch and circumambulate the object. The form is defined by the experience and the experience is defined by the form. Outdoor sculpture is also a vehicle for public interaction on a broad scale, eliminating the boundaries of race, gender, and age due to its uninhibited public exposure within that context. The public space is an autonomous, non-segregated platform where all walks of life can congregate and coexist.”

“I have always wanted to venture into working with sculpture but could never find the right arrangement for this enigmatic format. After spending time exploring and documenting the Mojave Desert in 2017, I decided to begin freeform cutting basic wood shapes that I then assembled into miniature prototypes. Within this new context, I was able to pull into this multidimensional space, shapes that are akin to the ethereal formations seen in the deserts seemingly unplanned and charismatic geometry. I realized how these forms could work together in unison as one solitary piece of work. At that point, my first series of sculptures emerged.”
