With Me is a conceptual standing figure in contrapposto, modelled from life in clay and cast in bronze. Selectively unresolved areas exist in dialogue with more defined forms, creating a shifting tension between completion and openness that gradually unfolds through the viewing experience. Suggesting a quiet peeling away of outer layers of skin, muscle and bone, the sculpture reflects resilience, continuity and the complexity of lived experience.
A work of quiet empowerment, the figure holds space — self-possessed and complete within itself. Rather than seeking explanation, the sculpture invites reflection on presence, endurance and the stories carried within the body.
