David James: Exterior Sculpture Portfolio (8)
Distinct expressions of purity and strength emanate from the works of David James. He intriguingly combines contrasting forms and textures in stone and steel. A luminous, mirror-finished stainless steel ball almost disappears physically as it reflects the worlds around it, whether it be twinned with stone or incredibly gliding across a watery surface. An interactive experience ensues as people see themselves and change perspectives. Similarly, a void draw us into and through a work like a powerful magnet, stimulating introspection and contemplation. In contrast, is the dark force lodged within the deep Belfast black granite forms and their juxtaposition of rugged and smooth surfaces. James also creates works in cast glass and exhibits in Europe and North America. He is based in Sutton, Québec, Canada.
