Ode to the Innocent
Cast Cement figure of woman fleeing clutching child 5/8 size.

I begin with clay not only for representational clarity but in the belief that the tactility of the hand to medium brings me closer to an authentic essence. The thumbprint we manifest in creative process is the matter of our lived experience and the imagination at play with the Other.

About the Artist

Phil Doggett-Williams

“In sculpture archetype and metaphor are integral to my narratives that communicate both the personal and collective. I believe that Art is a process of manifesting the invisible. Namely to bring feeling to life. It is a way to journey through the loves and conundrums of being. A way to belong, to befriend the self and the world at large.”
