Robert Clyatt feels that certain issues keep coming up in his work: What does it mean to be free, and how can we become more free, where do we get stuck? What is the nature of the relationship between an individual and others or with the wider world?
My work arises as a fusion of formal knowledge -- anatomy,
sculptural methods composition, sculptural history and forms --
and an originating intention or idea. But I never feel a work is complete until it has undergone some sort of transformation
that is objectively outside my control -- a mystery theater of accident, adventure, grace, construction or just the
transformation by fire that happens in a kiln.
For me a successful sculpture is a magical object, gathering and amplifying whispers from the edges of awareness.
