Eric Baker
About the Artist
“I try to communicate my love of the natural world to others, and seek to remind myself, along with my audience, that there are many things which are striking in their loveliness. I believe that the gentle curve of a leaf is as powerful as the span of an arch, and the colors of a flower can be as terrific as the sunset. That is why I use steel with its unyielding strength, and glass with its delicacy, to make something reminiscent of the organic, of something that is growing. My hope is that all who see my sculpture will be reminded of those intimate moments when we find joy in the most unlikely of places… all around us.” — Eric Baker
