Marjorie Kaye : Sculptures
My work is a study of magnetism: repulsion, attraction, retreating, emerging. They cast shadows within planes of energy. Mirrored in the elemental universe, in oceans and earth, the sculptures resemble creature-like forms, meeting the other in symbiosis. The dialogue between areas of formation suggests the complexity of life, which generates the multiplicity of cells and organisms.
The sculptures consist of individual forms cut from plywood and layered with wood glue. In the larger pieces, there is a core of foam core covered with veneers of plywood. The pieces are painted with gouache and sealed with acrylic medium. Some of the works are started with two pieces in the form of a right angle, and built from within. Others are relief sculptures, built out from a mass or a singular point. Still others are layered in a circular formation, forming cone-like unattached entities.
Parallel to the physics of magnetic energy, are the reflections of emotional states and intellectual thought patterns stemming from aspects of cause and effect. Each piece expresses visual patterns of brain synapse and internal fireworks; a gestalt of revelation and contemplation, reaction and experience. These are evolved aspects of the experience of duality generating the complexity of organic magnetism.
