COMING FORTH, Images in Bronze, an international online sculpture solo exhibition by Michael Henry opens on July 28 and will continue through August 28, 2021.
In his statement, Michigan Sculptor, Michael Henry expresses that "Man cannot exists in isolation. Even when alone, he interacts with his environment whether it is real or imagine (fantasy). Although this may not be profound, but consider: how does one as an artist reach his viewer, create his impact, yet maintain a nebulous atmosphere in which all people may find themselves in the art?
Finally, the figure more than a simple empathetic identification, provides a magnificent vehicle for all emotion through line, shape, and volume. It thus gives us a powerful medium for retrospection on future fantasy while searching for a resolution to the paradox of the joy and sadness, and the interaction and isolation that co-exist in our world."
